Combine all the meatball ingredients in a bowl. Form the meatballs into small golf ball size meatballs.
Place the meatballs in the basket of your air fryer and air fry for 10 minutes at 380°F shaking them halfway through. To bake, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 400°F for 20 to 25 minutes.

Notes
Recipe yields around 36 meatballs.
Use a cookie scoop. For the most uniform and evenly cooked meatballs, use a small cookie scoop or ice cream scoop to make them all exactly the same size and shape.
Temp the meatballs. Use an instant-read digital thermometer to ensure that the ground beef meatballs have reached an internal temperature of at least 160°F (74°C) before serving them.
Make it spicy. If you want to add a little kick to the dish just mix in about a tablespoon of sriracha into the sauce mixture. You could also stir-fry some sliced jalapeno with the onion and bell pepper mixture.
