Ingredients
1 lb sausage (homemade or store-bought)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack)
1 cup almond flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine sausage, sour cream, shredded cheese, and almond flour. Mix well until evenly incorporated.
- Form the mixture into equal-sized balls using your hands or an ice cream scoop.
- Place the sausage balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve warm with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce or enjoy plain.
Notes
Use sharp cheddar for classic flavor or spicy sausage for extra heat.
Add herbs like parsley or Italian seasoning for more aroma.
For smaller bites, make mini versions and reduce bake time slightly.
Reheat leftovers in an oven or air fryer at 350°F for 5–7 minutes for best texture.
Freeze cooked sausage balls and reheat directly from frozen for quick snacks.
