1/4 teaspoon of onion powder
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper

Instructions

Follow these steps to prepare your savory sausage balls.

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Mix Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the breakfast sausage, cheddar bay biscuit mix, shredded cheddar cheese, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix until well combined.

Form Balls

Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the sausage balls are golden brown and cooked through.

Serve

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!

These sausage balls are best served warm and can be paired with your favorite dipping sauce.

Pro Tips

For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper for some heat or include some crumbled bacon in the mix.

Storage Tips

To keep your Savory Cheddar Bay Biscuit Sausage Balls fresh, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They should stay good for up to three days. For longer storage, consider freezing them. After baking, allow the sausage balls to cool completely, then place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container, and they can last for up to three months.

When you're ready to enjoy the frozen sausage balls, simply reheat them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until heated through. This makes them a perfect make-ahead snack, ideal for busy weeknights or impromptu gatherings.

Serving Suggestions

These Savory Cheddar Bay Biscuit Sausage Balls can be served with a variety of dips to enhance their flavor. Consider pairing them with a spicy ranch dressing for a kick, or a creamy garlic aioli for a rich complement. For a touch of elegance, a honey mustard dip can provide a delightful contrast to the savory sausage and cheese.

You can also elevate your serving presentation by garnishing with fresh herbs or additional chopped green onions. A platter of these sausage balls, beautifully arranged with dips and colorful garnishes, will surely impress your guests and make your appetizer spread the star of the event.
