These Crock Pot Swedish Meatballs are a comforting and easy-to-make dish, featuring tender meatballs simmered in a creamy, savory sauce. Perfect as an appetizer or served over noodles or rice for a hearty meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 (10.5-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, onion, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, salt, pepper, allspice, and nutmeg. Mix until just combined.
  2. Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
  3. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and brown the meatballs in batches. Do not cook through; just brown the outside.
  4. Transfer the browned meatballs to a slow cooker.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour the mixture over the meatballs in the slow cooker.
  6. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours.
  7. Stir in the sour cream just before serving and heat through.
  8. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve over noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.

Notes

  • For a leaner option, substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef.
  • You can use frozen meatballs to save time; adjust cooking time as needed.
  • Serve with lingonberry jam for a traditional Swedish touch.
  • Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
