Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground pork sausage, at room temperature
  • 2 cups biscuit baking mix
  • 12 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground sausage and biscuit baking mix. Mix thoroughly with your hands until well blended.

  5. Place the sausage balls on a baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Remove from the oven and serve warm.
