Well, that was always me. But since we’ve moved to the Bay Area, our nearest Ikea is in the middle of the most trafficked area in the entire city so it’s really hard to get my swedish meatball fix when needed. Thankfully, I’ve found a homemade version that tastes even better than the original.         These Swedish meatballs have been on my bucket list for nearly 3 years, and I’m so glad to finally cross this off my list. I don’t know why it took me so long to make it – it’s so easy to make, and it really tastes a million times better than the Ikea version. Plus, you can always make a huge batch of meatballs (by either doubling or tripling the recipe) and storing the uncooked meatballs in the freezer. When you have that Swedish meatball craving, you can just defrost these babies overnight. So simple and easy, right?  And the sauce – you can’t forget about that creamy, heavenly gravy sauce that these meatballs are smothered in with the browned up meatball bits. Those meatball bits stuck to the bottom of the pan really make the gravy what it is. I could practically drink it! Just be sure to make a little bit extra if you serve these over a bed of egg noodles – you’ll really want a portion to slurp down\!   ## Swedish Meatballs Yield: 6 servings Prep: 15 minutes minutes Cook: 25 minutes minutes Total: 40 minutes minutes  Nothing beats homemade meatballs smothered in a creamy gravy sauce, and they taste much better than the IKEA version\! 4\.9 stars (142 ratings) [Print Recipe](https://damndelicious.net/wprm_print/swedish-meatballs) [Pin Recipe](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/bookmarklet/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdamndelicious.net%2F2014%2F02%2F21%2Fswedish-meatballs%2F&media=https%3A%2F%2Fdamndelicious.net%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2014%2F02%2FIMG_7352edit.jpg&description=Swedish+Meatballs&is_video=false) [Leave a Review](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#commentform) ### Video ### Ingredients - 2 tablespoons [olive oil](https://www.amazon.com/California-Olive-Ranch-Everyday-Virgin/dp/B0099Q87JM?th=1&linkCode=ll1&tag=damndelicio02-20&linkId=ebadf4048e6e4a1491d0215da1978e32&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl), divided - 1 onion, diced - 1 pound ground beef - 1 pound ground pork - ½ cup Panko\* - 2 large egg yolks - ¼ teaspoon ground allspice - ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg - Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste #### For the gravy - ¼ cup [unsalted butter](https://amzn.to/4i0EM1E) - ⅓ cup all-purpose flour - 4 cups beef broth - ¾ cup sour cream - Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves ### Instructions - Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a [large cast iron skillet](https://amzn.to/3UqkJfr) over medium heat.

I make mine with ground chicken and add a little all spice/nutmeg with the gravy. I also use yogurt instead of sour cream 2. **Sherri Romano** — January 26, 2025 @ 2:27 PM [Reply](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#comment-317655) Love, love, love this recipe! It’s on a frequent rotation in our home. I usually make it on a weekend as it’s a little labor intensive, but well worth it. Thank you fir another great recipe\! 3. **Rebecca** — January 9, 2025 @ 11:27 AM [Reply](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#comment-317353) Have made these many, many times, it’s the best recipe out there. We eat them with wide egg noodles and carrots. I freeze leftovers in the gravy, thaw in the fridge and they come out great. I have also frozen them raw, thaw and cook. That’s with the meat already having been frozen, thawed, also came out fine. 4. **Chris** — December 6, 2024 @ 9:04 AM [Reply](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#comment-316775) I made a full recipe of these for the two of us, and, since they were delicious, we ate them two dinners in a row. The first night we had them with boiled potatoes and green beans. The second night we had them with noodles. The gravy was particularly tasty. I included the egg whites. I also added a bit of ginger. Thanks for a great recipe. 5. **Liz Harbin** — November 20, 2024 @ 10:11 AM [Reply](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#comment-316533) This recipe is amazing , easy to make and just so flavorful My Grandson is very very fussy so normally i separate meatballs of any sort from the sauce. After he had a try of the sauce he wanted more ( Lots more gramma ) 6. **PM Tool** — July 30, 2024 @ 3:50 AM [Reply](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#comment-314256) Excellent!

So good! It made nearly twice as many meatballs as the recipe stated (which was fine by me!). 8. **Jan Bachmeyer** — June 23, 2024 @ 6:14 AM [Reply](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#comment-313297) The meatballs were very good but the sauce was quite bland 9. **rose downey** — June 2, 2024 @ 7:57 AM [Reply](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#comment-312625) So Yummy!

I have used it a couple of times. My little trick is to add a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the white sauce. 13. **Lee** — March 25, 2024 @ 10:20 AM [Reply](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#comment-309491) This is one of my family’s favorites!

I tried to make this meatless and used Impossible Burger, but that was a mistake, even though the recipe calls for them to be well seasoned. Can’t wait to make this again using real beef\! 17. **Angelica** — December 22, 2023 @ 1:11 PM [Reply](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/#comment-304170) I’ve been making this recipe several times over the years and it’s always a hit!

It is on our regular fall/winter rotation. I always serve over egg or kluski noodles. I’ve also increased the meatball to gravy ratio and served as an appetizer in a crockpot. It’s better when you make the meatballs per the recipe but I have also used frozen swedish meatballs for quicker weeknight meals. When I do that I add a little nutmeg and allspice to the gravy. Soooo yummy!!! We always love this eating this\! ## Comment navigation 1 [2](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/comment-page-2/#comments) [3](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/comment-page-3/#comments) [4](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/comment-page-4/#comments) [5](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/comment-page-5/#comments) [6](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/comment-page-6/#comments) … [28](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/comment-page-28/#comments) [Next »](https://damndelicious.net/2014/02/21/swedish-meatballs/comment-page-2/#comments)  ## Hey!
