Cheesy Sausage Balls
Description
This recipe combines prepared Bisquick biscuit mix with raw ground pork sausage, shredded cheddar and grated Parmesan cheeses, and milk to produce a cohesive dough. The mix is shaped into small balls and baked at 350°F until the exterior turns golden and the sausage is cooked through.
The finished sausage balls offer a balance of savory flavors from the seasoned pork and sharp cheeses, with a light biscuit texture from the Bisquick. They can be served as an appetizer or snack, complemented by dipping sauces such as BBQ, honey mustard, ketchup, or maple syrup, which add additional flavor contrasts.
For best results, ingredients should be at room temperature to mix uniformly. The recipe can be customized using hot breakfast sausage for spicier notes. Leftovers can be refrigerated in airtight containers for up to five days or frozen raw after initial shaping, then baked from frozen as needed.
Ingredients
- 3 cups Bisquick (such as Bisquick)
- 1 lb ground pork sausage breakfast
- 4 cups cheddar cheese shredded
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- ½ cup milk
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 350°F and lining a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix until everything is well combined.
- Using a cookie scoop or your hands, shape mixture into 1 inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake until golden brown, about 20 - 25 minutes.
- Remove from pan once cool enough to handle and serve with your favorite dipping sauce such as BBQ, honey mustard, ketchup, or even maple syrup.
Notes
- Allow ingredients to reach room temperature before mixing for better incorporation.
- Use hot breakfast sausage for a spicier flavor variation.
- Store leftovers in airtight containers in the fridge for up to five days.
- Freeze uncooked sausage balls on a baking sheet before transferring to freezer bags; bake directly from frozen when needed.
