- Preheat oven to 350°F
- In a small bowl, mix breadcrumbs with milk. Set aside so crumbs can fully absorb milk.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, using your hands, mix the ground beef, onion, garlic, egg yolk and Parmesan.
- Add the breadcrumb mixture and oregano, mixing again.
- Season with salt, pepper, fennel seed and nutmeg and mix well.
- Form mixture into rounds about the size of ping-pong balls, and place on a parchment or silicon lined baking sheet with a rim. Feel free to make the meatballs bigger or smaller than this, but just be consistent so they bake evenly.
- Bake the meatballs for 15 to 25 minutes (timing depends on how big you make the meatballs).
- You can add these to spaghetti sauce right away or allow them to cool and then freeze for later.
- Frozen meatballs should keep for up to 3 months.
