Time 45m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup finely chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ pound hot Italian pork sausage, casing removed
½ pound ground beef
½ cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
½ cup chopped cooked bacon
1 large egg, lightly beaten
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 cup water
½ cup Grade A maple syrup
1 teaspoon chicken soup base
⅛ teaspoon cayenne, or to taste
3 slices cooked, crumbled bacon
wooden toothpicks (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Heat olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook onion until softened, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute more. Remove from heat.
  • Combine Italian sausage, ground beef, bread crumbs, cooked bacon, egg, salt, pepper, and the contents of the skillet in a bowl. Using your fingers, combine ingredients until they are well mixed. Form into about 14 meatballs, 2 inches in diameter, and place on the prepared sheet pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • While the meatballs are baking, make the glaze. Combine water, maple syrup, soup base, and cayenne pepper in a 10-inch, nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Bring to a boil and reduce heat slightly. Boil until reduced by half, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove glaze from heat and allow to cool. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down any syrup that clings to the sides of the skillet, and stir back into the glaze.
  • Place meatballs in a serving dish and drizzle glaze over each meatball. Top with cooked, crumbled bacon and serve warm with toothpicks.
