Easy Swedish Meatball Recipe
Ingredients Needed For The Meatballs:
- 1 pound ground pork
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 and 1/2 cups plain breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 3 eggs beaten
Ingredients Needed For The Gravy:
- 2 cans (10.5-ounce) beef broth
- 1 can (10.5-ounce) cream of mushroom soup
- 1/4 cup cold water
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Instructions for the Meatballs:
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees (F).
In a large bowl, mix all of the ingredients together. (If you use your clean hands to mix everything, you’ll get a little messy, but you won’t be spending as much time mixing as you would if you use a spoon. Decide what’s best for you).
Place a sheet of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and spray with cooking oil.
Shape the meat mixture into 1-inch meatballs and place onto the baking sheets. Leave at least 2-inches of space between the meatballs.
Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Remove from the oven after cooking and set aside.
If you’d like to freeze the meatballs and save for another day, wait until the meatballs are at room temperature and place in a gallon-sized freezer bag. Store until you’re ready to eat).
Instructions for the Gravy:
In a large saucepan, combine the beef broth and cream of mushroom soup and cook over medium heat. Stir occasionally and cook until heated through.
In a separate bowl, whisk cornstarch and the cold water until smooth. Add this to the soup mixture.
Continue cooking and bring to a boil, stirring constantly to prevent burning. The mixture will start to thicken.
Reduce the heat to low and add the cream slowly. Mix and heat through. Serve the gravy with the meatballs over a delicious plate of noodles, rice, or by themselves.

We love meatballs and these look delicious. Pinning1
Thank you so much!
I just made homemade meatballs this weekend; unfortunately I don’t think they’d work well with this recipe since they have a lot of Italian spiced in them but I am going to pin this to try. I love Swedish meatballs.
Yummy…Italian spiced meatballs are amazing! When you get the chance, I hope you enjoy this recipe too. Let me know how yours turns out. =D
Have a happy day, friend.
This looks like a great recipe to share with the family! I know my family would enjoy it! Wish I had some kitchen helpers though 🙂
Swedish meatballs are one of my favorites! I like that I could make up some & store them in the freezer for later. Less meal prep at supper time is always a good thing! 🙂
Anything to make life a little easier is always a good thing. Have a happy day, friend.
Thanks for sharing — I love Swedish meatballs!
Our family has a bit of an obsession with meatballs. We love them. We had BBQ meatballs tonight and they were fantastic. We have Italian Meatball subs on next weeks menu plan too. See, I told you! That said, my favorite meatballs are Swedish meatballs and I love how simple this recipe is. We will have to give them a try! Thanks for sharing!
Yummy! I love the different types of meatballs you mentioned (and I’m sure if I showed my husband, he’d be over to eat with your family in a heartbeat). Have a happy day, friend.
Mmm, these look so yummy. I love baking meatballs in the oven, less mess and no wondering if they’re cooked through. My hubby will love me when I make this for him for dinner very soon.
I love Swedish meatballs! I always have to make them from scratch since we can’t have wheat or mushrooms (which I now know how to easily substitute for!) Pinning
We love Swedish Meatballs and yours look great, thanks for sharing!
