Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork sausage
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
If desired, add hot sauce to the mixture for a bit of extra kick.
Gradually add the milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, to help bind the mixture together. Mix until everything is well combined.
Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
Place the sausage bites onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced slightly apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the sausage bites are golden brown and cooked through. You can check for doneness by cutting into one to ensure no pink remains.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch, barbecue sauce, or honey mustard.
