In a large bowl, mix together bread crumbs, parmesan and onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Stir in garlic and black pepper. Allow to sit for 5 minutes to allow garlic flavor to permeate the egg mixture.
Pour egg mixture into bowl with bread crumb mixture and stir until thoroughly combined.
Add ground beef and, using your hands, mix until bread crumb mixture is distributed evenly throughout the beef.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with foil and spay it with cooking spray. Form meat mixture into 2-inch balls and place on baking sheet. Bake until nicely browned, approximately 35 to 45 minutes.
Allow meatballs to cool to room temperature before adding to sauce or freezing. Adding the hot meatballs to the sauce may cause them to fall apart while simmering.
