Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 3 cups Bisquick baking mix
- 1 lb ground pork sausage (spicy sausage works well for added flavor)
- 16 oz shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup milk (can substitute water for less richness, but milk makes sausage balls fluffier)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it reaches the correct temperature for baking the sausage balls evenly.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Bisquick baking mix, ground sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and milk. Use your hands to thoroughly mix the ingredients until well combined and a cohesive dough forms.
- Form Balls: Shape the mixture into small balls approximately 2-3 tablespoons each using your hands. This helps ensure uniform cooking and easy serving sizes.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the formed sausage balls spaced evenly on a large baking sheet to allow for proper heat circulation during baking.
- Bake: Bake the sausage balls in the preheated oven for 23-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the sausage balls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving to avoid burns and help them set.
Notes
- For spicier sausage balls, use hot or spicy ground sausage.
- You can substitute milk with water for a lighter texture, though milk adds fluffiness.
- Serving size is about 12 sausage balls per recipe.
- Cooked sausage balls can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated.
