🧂 Ingredients

  • 1 lb (450 g) ground pork sausage (mild or spicy)

  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

  • 1 ½ cups Bisquick (or any baking mix)

  • Optional: 1–2 tablespoons milk for softer texture

  • Optional seasoning: pinch of garlic powder or black pepper


👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Mix ingredients: In a large bowl, combine sausage, cheese, and Bisquick. Use your hands to mix until evenly combined. Add a splash of milk if the mixture feels dry.

  3. Form balls: Roll into 1-inch balls and place them about 1 inch apart on the baking sheet.

  4. Bake: Bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. Serve warm: Enjoy plain or with your favorite dipping sauce — like ranch, honey mustard, or BBQ!


💡 Tips for Perfect Sausage Balls

  • Use freshly shredded cheese (not pre-shredded) for better texture.

  • Want extra flavor? Add a dash of cayenne or Italian seasoning.

  • Make ahead and freeze uncooked balls — bake straight from frozen when needed!


🧾 Storage Tips

  • Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

  • Freeze baked or unbaked sausage balls for up to 3 months.
