Instant Pot Gluten Free Turkey Meatballs Recipe
With your Instant Pot, Gluten Free Turkey Meatballs are a quick and easy dinner! Prep and freeze raw meatballs to quickly cook in your favorite jar of tomato sauce on a busy weeknight.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground Turkey
- 1 Egg
- 1/2 cup Gluten Free Breadcrumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1 tablespoon Minced Dehydrated Onion Flakes (optional)
- 1/4 cup Milk (I use unsweetened plain coconut milk or almond milk to keep them dairy free)
- 1 teaspoon Dried Parsley
- 1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary
- 3/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
Instructions
- Add all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and gently combine.
- Scoop into 1 1/2 tablespoon portions using a 1 1/2 tablespoon spring-loaded scoop (or cookie scoop) and gently roll into a ball between the palms of your hands.
- Pour at least one cup of your favorite sauce into your pressure cooker. (When I’m making spaghetti and meatballs, I pour in a full jar of sauce. You just need at least 1 cup so that your Instant Pot can safely come to pressure.)
- Add your turkey meatballs to the sauce and set your Instant pot or electric pressure cooker to manual 10 minutes on high pressure.
- When finished, release pressure with either the natural or quick release method.
- Serve over pasta, rice, or veggies.
Notes
To freeze raw turkey meatballs:
- Scoop the turkey meatball mixture as described in the recipe, but place the raw turkey meatballs inside a freezer safe gallon size bag.
- Squeeze out excess air and then freeze the turkey meatballs on a flat surface.
- To cook, follow the directions for cooking fresh turkey meatballs in your Instant Pot. Nothing changes.
