🛒 Ingredients

👨‍🍳 How to Make Sausage Balls

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Mix Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine sausage, shredded cheese, and Bisquick. Mix well with your hands or a stand mixer until fully combined. (Optional: add seasonings for extra flavor.)

3. Form Balls

Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart.

4. Bake

Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).

5. Serve Warm

Serve immediately with dipping sauces like ranch, honey mustard, or spicy ketchup.


🧂 Dipping Sauce Ideas

  • Classic ranch dressing
  • Honey mustard or Dijon mustard
  • Barbecue sauce
  • Spicy sriracha mayo
  • Maple syrup for a sweet-savory combo

🧊 Make Ahead & Freezing Tips

  • To make ahead: Mix and roll the sausage balls, then refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.
  • To freeze: Freeze unbaked balls on a tray, then transfer to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen, adding 5–7 extra minutes to cook time.
  • To reheat: Warm leftovers in the oven or air fryer at 350°F for 5–10 minutes.

🔁 Variations

  • Use spicy sausage or maple sausage for flavor twists
  • Swap cheddar for pepper jack or Monterey Jack
  • Add cream cheese for extra softness and richness
  • Mix in chopped jalapeños, green onions, or cooked bacon

❓ FAQ – Sausage Balls Recipe

Q: Can I use pre-shredded cheese?
A: Yes, but shredding your own cheese helps the mixture hold together better since pre-shredded cheese contains anti-caking agents.

Q: My sausage balls are too dry — what went wrong?
A: Try reducing the biscuit mix slightly or adding 2–3 tbsp of milk to soften the texture.

Q: Can I make these in an air fryer?
A: Yes! Air fry at 370°F (188°C) for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway.


🧀 Conclusion

These easy sausage balls are a must-have for your appetizer rotation. With just a few ingredients, minimal prep, and endless crowd appeal, they’re the perfect finger food for every occasion — from holiday brunches to Super Bowl parties.
