Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
- In a large bowl, combine the ground sausage, softened cream cheese, drained Rotel, cheddar cheese, Bisquick, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Mix everything thoroughly until well combined. It’s easiest to do this with your hands or a stand mixer.
Step 3: Shape the Sausage Balls
- Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Step 4: Bake to Perfection
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the sausage balls are golden brown and cooked through.
- Let them cool slightly before serving.
Serving Suggestions
🔥 Dipping Sauces – Serve with ranch, honey mustard, BBQ sauce, or spicy sriracha mayo.
🥚 Breakfast Twist – Pair with scrambled eggs for a protein-packed morning meal.
🥗 Side Dish Idea – Serve alongside a fresh salad or roasted veggies for a balanced meal.
Tips for the Best Sausage Balls
✔ Use Freshly Shredded Cheese – Pre-shredded cheese has anti-caking agents that can affect texture.
✔ Don’t Overmix – Mix just until combined to keep them tender.
✔ Make Ahead & Freeze – Roll the balls and freeze them uncooked. When ready to bake, cook from frozen, adding a few extra minutes.
✔ Drain the Rotel Well – Too much liquid will make the mixture too wet to roll properly.
