Bisquick Sausage Balls are super simple and make a great breakfast or snack. You only need a few ingredients and thirty minutes to make these tasty bites!
Sausage Balls are a staple in our house this time of year. We love them for game day, weekend snacks and the holidays. They are especially delicious paired with these Blushing Mimosas.
Ingredients Needed
Growing up my family called these 3-2-1 sausage balls because you use 3 cups Bisquick, 2 cups cheese and 1 sausage roll. I added a cup of water to the recipe to make them a little more fluffy like a biscuit. For this recipe I also used the sausage with sage. You can use original or even spicy if you prefer.
Tips for Making
- Spray hands with non-stick cooking spray to help prevent dough from sticking to your hands.
- If you like your balls spicy, use spicy sausage.
- Don’t over mix the dough. Over mixing will make the sausage balls tough.
- Love sweet and salty,try dipping these into some maple syrup!
How To Make This Sausage Ball Recipe
- Don’t think these can get much easier. Mix together sausage, Bisquick, cheese and water in a large bowl.
- I find using my hands is the best way to mix all the ingredients, just be sure not to over mix. If you like a little spice, add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
- Roll the batter into golf ball size balls and place on a baking sheet lined with foil sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake for 25-30 minutes.
FAQ’s
Do sausage balls need to be refrigerated?
I like to serve them warm and then place any left overs in a sealed container in the refrigerator. If you are serving them for a party, they can stay out on the table for about 2 hours.
Can you freeze them?
Yes you can freeze them! Put cooked and cooled sausage balls on a baking sheet in the freezer. Once they have frozen, place them in a freezer bag and freeze for up to 4 months. To reheat, let them thaw in the refrigerator and then bake at 350 for 15 -20 minutes or until heated through.
Make your own Bisquick
If you don’t have Bisquick on hand, mix together 3 cup all-purpose flour, 4 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 3 tablespoons butter.
