Ingredients

  • 1 slice bread
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion grated
  • 1 tablespoon sour cream
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with foil; then lightly coat the foil with nonstick spray. In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the bread until they resemble crumbs.
  • Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the bread crumbs and toast until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine the toasted bread crumbs and milk; let stand until all of the milk is absorbed.
  • In a large bowl, add the breadcrumb mixture, ground beef, grated onion, sour cream, egg, salt and pepper. Using a wooden spoon or clean hands, stir until well combined.
  • Roll the mixture into 1 1/4-to-1 1/2-inch meatballs and place on onto prepared baking sheet.
  • Drizzle a small amount of mayonnaise on each meatball. (A squeeze bottle or Ziploc bag is perfect for this.)
  • In a small bowl, combine the mozzarella and Parmesan. Sprinkle each meatball with 1 tablespoon cheese mixture.
  • Bake at 400 degrees until the cheese has melted and is slightly golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Broil for an additional 2-5 minutes, or until the cheese has crisped up.
