Cream Cheese Sausage Balls

These savory cream cheese sausage balls are the ultimate delicious appetizer or perfect for snacking! With crispy bottoms and moist, cheesy centers, they are absolutely addictive. Keto, low carb, and gluten free, too!

Ingredients

• Mild or spicy sausage
• Cream cheese
• Sharp cheddar
• Almond flour
• Coconut flour
• Baking powder
• Eggs
• Salt

How To Make Them

• Mix together the sausage and cream cheese either with a mixer or by hand. Add the eggs and cheese and mix until well-combined.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients. Add the mixture to the cheese and stir well.
• Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the fridge for at least an hour.
• After the dough has chilled, preheat the oven to 375º F.
• Spray a large baking or cookie sheet with cooking spray or line with aluminum foil.
• Scoop the dough in tablespoon sized portions and roll into balls. Place them on the baking sheet about an inch apart. (This recipe makes about 35-40 balls, so you might have several baking sheets worth!)
• Bake until the balls are golden brown, about 25 minutes.
• Let the cheese balls cool slightly before placing them on a paper towel lined plate.

Chef Tips

• To make these balls gluten free, make sure your baking powder does not contain any gluten.
• If you’d like a little extra flavor in your cheese balls, add a couple cloves of minced garlic to your dough.
• We highly recommend spraying your aluminum foil with a little cooking spray. We found that this was the best way to keep the cheese balls from sticking.
• Each serving size is about 4 cheese balls. We made 40 with ours!
