Sausage Balls I Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Combine the sausage, baking mix and scallions if using in a large bowl and gently knead with your hands until the baking mix is fully incorporated. Add the Cheddar and continue to mix until the cheese is evenly distributed.
• Using a tablespoon to scoop, divide the mixture into walnut-size pieces and shape into balls with your hands. Arrange on the lined baking sheets about 2 inches apart, about 20 balls per baking sheet.
• Bake until the sausage balls are golden brown and cooked through, about 26 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine sausage, baking mix, Cheddar cheese, egg, and evaporated milk in the bowl of a stand mixer; mix on low speed until thoroughly combined.
• Shape sausage mixture into 1-inch balls and arrange onto baking sheets.
• Bake in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Combine ingredients in a bowl and mix with your hands until there are no dry crumbs. Form into balls about one inch in diameter and place on a baking sheet. If you have the time, the sausage balls hold their shape better if refrigerated overnight before baking. (They also freeze extremely well. Bake them straight out of the freezer, adding a few more minutes to the baking time.)
• Bake until the balls are golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Serve immediately.
