Maple Sausage Balls Recipes

Steps:

• Mix pork, maple syrup, sage, salt, fennel seed, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, onion powder, and anise seed in a large bowl until evenly blended. Shape pork into small patties.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; fry patties in batches until pork is browned and no longer pink in the center, 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl (it's easiest if you have a Kitchen Aid mixer - use the dough hook), roll into 1 inch balls and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the balls are golden brown. Cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Heat olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook onion until softened, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute more. Remove from heat.
• Combine Italian sausage, ground beef, bread crumbs, cooked bacon, egg, salt, pepper, and the contents of the skillet in a bowl. Using your fingers, combine ingredients until they are well mixed. Form into about 14 meatballs, 2 inches in diameter, and place on the prepared sheet pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• While the meatballs are baking, make the glaze. Combine water, maple syrup, soup base, and cayenne pepper in a 10-inch, nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Bring to a boil and reduce heat slightly. Boil until reduced by half, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove glaze from heat and allow to cool. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down any syrup that clings to the sides of the skillet, and stir back into the glaze.
• Place meatballs in a serving dish and drizzle glaze over each meatball. Top with cooked, crumbled bacon and serve warm with toothpicks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine sausage, biscuit baking mix and cheese. Form into walnut size balls and place on baking sheets.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown and sausage is cooked through.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir well.
• Form into 1-inch balls and place them on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
• Remove from oven and cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the baking sheet.
