Air Fryer Meatballs
These air fryer meatballs are so easy and delicious and ready in just 30 minutes. It just takes a handful of ingredients to make these meatballs in air fryer: ground beef, premium Italian seasoning (like my Spicekick Spaghetti seasoning mix), breadcrumbs, milk, and an egg. Simmer the meatballs in a big can of crushed tomatoes.

Preheat air fryer on air fry setting on 400 degrees F.
Pour milk into medium mixing bowl. Sprinkle in breadcrumbs. Add the beef and Spicekick Spaghetti seasoning mix. Add the egg. Stir with hands or a fork until well combined.
Pour half the oil into a wide shallow dish or plate.
Shape the meat into meatballs, about 1 ½ tablespoons each*, placing them into the shallow dish. Drizzle the meatballs with the remaining half of oil and gently roll the meatballs in the oil to coat evenly.
Place the meatballs in the air fryer in a single layer. Cook 5 minutes, until browned.
Place the meatballs into the sauce and simmer about 10 minutes.
