For the Sausage Balls
  • 1 lb Breakfast Sausage Choose a high-fat variety for best flavor

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the breakfast sausage, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, almond flour, and baking powder. Mix until just combined, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Take small portions of the mixture and roll into golf ball-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place on the baking sheet.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 to 24 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Remove from oven, let cool for about 5 minutes, then serve warm.

Notes

Refrigerate the mixture for 15-20 minutes before shaping for easier handling. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Freeze uncooked balls for up to 3 months.
