Notes
- Baked and leftovers. Prepare according to the directions. Allow to cool and store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Unbaked. Prepare without baking. Place the uncooked sausage balls onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and into the freezer overnight to freeze. Transfer the frozen balls into a freezer-safe zip-top bag or airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to bake, remove the number you'd like to bake and thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Then bake as directed.
