SAUSAGE BALL RECIPE WITHOUT BISQUICK

This Bisquick Sausage Balls recipe is incredibly easy to make. This easy recipe, which includes sausage, cheese, Bisquick mix, and milk, is perfect for an appetizer or a quick bite to eat.

The best part about this simple appetizer is how quick and easy it is to prepare. This is one of my go-to recipes when I need to feed a large group quickly. And the best part is that these sausage cheese balls never, ever let you down.

TIPS FOR MAKING SAUSAGE BALLS RECIPE

• Make sure to shred your own cheese. If you use 3 cups of Bisquick and your sausage balls are too dry, it’s possible that you’re using pre-shredded cheese. The moisture-blocking agent cellulose is applied to pre-shredded cheese.
• If you use the measuring cup to scoop the mixture, you’ll end up with too much in the cup. Spoon the mixture into a measuring cup and level it with a knife.
• In these, I ALWAYS use Jimmy Dean sausage.
• I make these with hot sausage and think they’re fantastic (and definitely not too hot for the little people). Cheddar cheese goes so well with a little spiciness. Consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper if you’re using regular or mild sausage.
• Use the paddle attachment on a stand mixer if you have one. This mixture is very thick, so it will save your arm if you use a paddle attachment instead.
• In order to get things done quickly, use a cookie scoop. This will also help you keep your sausage balls the same size.

INGREDIENTS + VARIATIONS

Begin by putting together a simple list of things to start with. You can see why this is my favorite sausage ball with cream cheese recipe.

• Bisquick
• cheddar cheese – If you want to use other types of cheese, you can, but I like cheddar the best.
• spicy sausage – If you don’t like spicy food, you can use regular pork sausage in place of the spicy sausage.
• milk – I tend to use 2% milk, but really any will do.

There is always room to make changes to this Bisquick Sausage Ball recipe.

• Use mild sausage instead of spicy sausage to make this sausage ball recipe less spicy.
• Experiment with different dips to see if these cheesy sausage balls can stand on their own or if they benefit from additional flavors.
• To give it even more depth, add some fun toppings like parmesan cheese or a fresh slice of jalapeno.
• You can also add some maple syrup to the mix if you want to add some sweetness. A tablespoon or so should be enough to give it a nice flavor.
• These meatballs with cheese are a big hit with my kids. Sharp cheddar cheese, as well as pepper jack cheese, are excellent shredded over the top. You can also add the cheese directly to the mixture.
• I also like to throw in a teaspoon of garlic powder every now and then.

HOW TO MAKE SAUSAGE BALLS

1. COMBINE THE INGREDIENTS

In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients. TIP: Using a mixer will make this task a lot easier!

2. FORM THE SAUSAGE BALLS

Using your hands or a small scoop, form them into balls. To make 1-inch balls, use a cookie scoop. To save calories and keep them the classic meatball size, I make them a little smaller.

3. ADD TO BAKING SHEET

Put on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

4. PLACE IN THE OVEN

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned.

Serve with a dipping sauce of your choice. With honey mustard or marinara, these would be fantastic. Ranch dressing is a fan favorite as well!
