These homemade Cheddar Bay Sausage Balls are a cheesy, garlicky party snack made with breakfast sausage and Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix. Perfect for game day, parties, and family gatherings, they bake up crisp on the outside and tender inside for the ultimate savory bite.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Sausage Balls:

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage (mild or spicy, depending on your preference)
  • 2 cups Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix
  • 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 tsp onion powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  2. Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the breakfast sausage with the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix. Break up the sausage into small crumbles using your hands or a spoon. Add shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and milk. Crack in the egg, then stir everything together until fully combined. The mixture should be moist but firm enough to shape into balls.
  3. Form the Sausage Balls: Using your hands, scoop small portions and roll them into approximately 1-inch diameter balls. If the mixture is sticky, lightly grease your hands or use a spoon to help form the balls.
  4. Bake the Sausage Balls: Place the formed sausage balls evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. The outside should be crisp while the inside remains tender.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces like ranch, spicy mustard, or honey mustard. Enjoy your delicious party snack!

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the dough to avoid tough sausage balls.
  • Use high-quality breakfast sausage for the best flavor; mild or spicy depending on preference.
  • You can freeze uncooked sausage balls for later. Bake directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
