Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried sage
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, almond flour, onion powder, garlic powder, dried sage, dried thyme, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
Crack the eggs into a separate bowl and beat them lightly, then add them to the pork mixture. Mix thoroughly using your hands or a spatula until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Form the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
Melt the coconut oil and brush it lightly over the top of each sausage ball for added flavor and promotion of crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the sausage balls are browned and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm as a snack, appetizer, or part of a savory breakfast.
