WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?
This recipe is super easy and you only really need what you already have at home! You’ll want some measuring spoons and cups, mixing bowls, a cutting board, and a knife and you can either use a spoon/spatula or just mix everything with your hands.
One kitchen tool that’s totally not needed but I personally love using is a cookie scoop for meatballs! I love that it’s super easy to scoop and every meatball is the same size. You can also just roll it with your hands or weigh each one out so it’s all even.
Aside from these, you’ll of course need an air fryer! I use the Ninja DZ401 Foodi 10 Quart! You can also just cook it over the stove or bake it in the oven if you don’t have an air fryer.
