Ground Meat: Traditionally, Swedish meatballs are made with a mixture of both ground beef and ground pork, so I’ve used a combination of both meats. However, if you don’t eat pork, you can also make these with just ground beef or vice versa.

Panko: I’ve used plain gluten-free panko breadcrumbs to keep this recipe gluten-free. However, if you are not Celiac or gluten-intolerant, go ahead and use regular panko breadcrumbs instead.

Egg: The egg helps to bind the meatball mixture together, so make sure you add it in.

Almond Milk: I used an unsweetened version of my homemade almond milk, but you may also use another unsweetened non-dairy milk instead (such as cashew milk, rice milk, oat milk, soy milk, etc.). Alternatively, if you are not lactose-intolerant, you may use regular milk instead.

Onion: I used a yellow onion, but white onions or red onions will work too.

Worcestershire Sauce: I used gluten-free Worcestershire sauce to keep this recipe gluten-free. However if you are not Celiac or gluten-intolerant, go ahead and use regular Worcestershire sauce instead.

Granulated Garlic: You may also use garlic powder instead.

Ground Nutmeg: Ground nutmeg adds a characteristic flavor to these Swedish meatballs.

Gluten-Free Flour: I recommend using a good-quality gluten-free all-purpose flour blend that is made up of lighter flours/starches (such as rice flour, tapioca starch, corn starch or potato starch) so it dissolves easily into the gravy. Alternatively, you may also use corn starch instead. If you are not Celiac or gluten-intolerant, go ahead and use regular wheat flour instead.

Beef Broth: Homemade or storebought beef broth will work. If you don’t have beef broth, beef stock will also work.

Cream: I used dairy-free heavy cream to keep this recipe dairy-free. However, if you are not lactose-intolerant, go ahead and use regular cream instead.

Butter: I used dairy-free butter to keep this recipe dairy-free. However, if you are not lactose-intolerant, go ahead and use regular butter instead.

Parsley: I like garnishing these Swedish meatballs with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor. Alternatively, you may also use chopped chives or spring onions as garnish.
