Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400F.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the grated onion, nutritional yeast, salt, garlic powder, and flour until well combined. Add the meat, stirring until well combined (clean hands work best), being careful not to overmix.

Step 3

Using a heaping tablespoon, roll the mixture into balls. Place each on a rimmed baking baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.

Step 4

Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping once, until golden and cooked through.

Step 5

Remove from the oven, add to sauce of choice (if using), and serve with marinara sauce if desired.

Step 6

Follow step 1-2 above. Roll the mixture into balls.

Step 7

Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the olive oil, then cook the meatballs until golden and cooked through, flipping halfway through. You may need to work in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Pour in the marinara sauce and simmer until cooked through.
