In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, milk, onion, egg, salt, black pepper, allspice, and nutmeg. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.

In the same skillet, sprinkle flour over the melted butter. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Serve the Swedish meatballs with lingonberry sauce and mashed potatoes or noodles.
