Ingredients
Sausage Balls
- 1 pound (454 g) pork sausage regular breakfast-style, at room temperature
- 2 cups (240 g) Bisquick baking mix
- 2 cups (200 g) sharp cheddar cheese freshly grated
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk whole preferred, but low-fat works
Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Sturdy spatula
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Cookie Scoop or Tablespoon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the room-temperature pork sausage, freshly grated cheddar cheese, and Bisquick. Mix with your hands or a sturdy spatula until well combined.
- Add the milk to the mixture and continue mixing until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. If it feels crumbly, add a splash more milk.
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion out heaping tablespoon-sized mounds. Roll each portion between your hands into a ball, about the size of a golf ball. Place on the prepared baking sheet, spacing slightly apart.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the sausage balls are golden brown with crispy bottoms.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
Notes
Store leftover sausage balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. For best texture, reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5–8 minutes. To freeze, let cool completely, freeze on a tray, then transfer to a sealed bag for up to 2 months. Bake from frozen at 350°F for 10–15 minutes.
Variations: Try using spicy breakfast sausage, swapping in pepper jack or Monterey Jack cheese, or adding a pinch of smoked paprika or garlic powder to the mix. For gluten-free sausage balls, substitute your favorite gluten-free biscuit mix.
