Classic Breakfast Sausage Balls
These savory and cheesy breakfast sausage balls are incredibly easy to make and perfect for a quick breakfast, brunch, or snack. Made with ground pork, Bisquick, and sharp cheddar, they're a comforting bite everyone will love.
Ingredients
- •1 lb Ground Pork (mild or hot sausage)
- •2 cups Bisquick Baking Mix
- •2 cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
- •1/3 to 1/2 cup Milk (as needed to form dough)
Instructions
- 1.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Time: 5 min - 2.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, Bisquick baking mix, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, and 1/3 cup of milk. Using your hands, mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated and a sticky, wet dough forms. If the mixture is too dry, add the remaining milk a tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
Time: 7 min - 3.
Roll the mixture into approximately 1-inch balls. You can use a large cookie scoop for consistent sizing. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are about 1/2 inch apart.
Time: 8 min - 4.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the sausage balls are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature of the pork should reach 160°F (71°C).
Time: 25 min - 5.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
Time: 5 min

- 💡For extra flavor, add a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the mixture.
