Easy Bisquick Sausage Balls (Print version)

Crispy, cheesy Bisquick sausage balls with just 3 ingredients, ready in 20 minutes for game day or brunch.

# Ingredients:

01 - 1 lb (450 g) raw pork breakfast sausage
02 - 2 cups (240 g) Bisquick Original baking mix
03 - 8 oz (225 g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (about 2 cups)
04 - 2 tablespoons whole milk, if needed
05 - 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

# Instructions:

01 - Combine the raw sausage, Bisquick, shredded cheddar, and black pepper in a large bowl. Mix with clean hands until evenly moist and no dry streaks remain.
02 - Squeeze a small handful. If it crumbles, add milk one tablespoon at a time until the mixture clings together.
03 - Scoop tablespoon-sized portions and roll gently into 1-inch balls. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet with 1 inch between them.
04 - Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 18-22 minutes until the tops are crisp and golden and the bottoms are deeply browned. Let rest 3 minutes before serving.

# Good to know:

01 - Best served warm while the cheese is still soft inside.
