Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Make the meatballs: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, eggs, milk, breadcrumbs, onion, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until well blended.
-
Shape into meatballs (about 1-inch in diameter) and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake for 20 minutes, or until fully cooked and lightly browned.
-
Prepare the glaze: In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together the chili sauce and grape jelly until smooth and heated through.
-
Coat the meatballs: Add the baked meatballs to the glaze, gently stirring to coat. Simmer on low for 10 minutes to let the flavors meld.
-
Serve warm as an appetizer or over rice for a main dish.
Tips:
-
For extra flavor, add ½ tsp smoked paprika or 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce to the meatball mixture.
-
Slow cooker option: After baking, transfer meatballs and glaze to a slow cooker and keep warm on LOW for serving.
-
Make ahead: Prepare meatballs in advance and freeze (without glaze). Reheat in the sauce when ready to serve.
