How to Make Breakfast Meatballs

Form the pork mixture into balls, using about 2 1/2 tablespoons of meat per ball. Use a cookie scoop to make this quick and easy.
Place the balls on a baking sheet and cook for 11 to 12 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and cook for an additional three to four minutes, until slightly browned on top and cooked through.
How to Store
You can freeze away uncooked (raw) breakfast meatballs and cook them from frozen whenever you need.
Add an additional three to five minutes of cook time if doing this.
If storing cooked meatballs, freeze in an airtight freezer safe plastic bag or container for up to three months. Reheat in the oven from frozen, or thaw overnight in the fridge.
