Making homemade meatballs has never been easier! With this recipe, you can create moist and flavorful Italian meatballs that everyone will love. What’s even better is that you can bake them in the oven, making it the easiest and cleanest way to cook meatballs.

Baking your meatballs ensures that they are cooked perfectly every single time. You can cook a large amount all at the same time, and you can be sure that they will be cooked all the way through. No need to hover over a hot skillet, flipping meatballs and getting grease everywhere. This way, you can focus on making the pasta!

For years, I used to cook meatballs in a skillet just like my mother and grandmother did. But once I learned how to bake them in the oven, I never turned back! These meatballs have become a family favorite recipe that I make over and over again. They are so delicious that even the pickiest eaters devour them in a heartbeat.

Not only can you enjoy these meatballs with spaghetti or as meatball subs, but they also make great appetizers for any get-together or party. They are packed with sensational flavors and have the perfect juicy texture that we all love.

What’s great is that you can even make them in advance and freeze them for future use. They are perfect for meatball subs for lunch or for adding to future pasta dishes. You can even drop them into a big crockpot of sauce and let them simmer, absorbing all the flavors.
