🛒 What You’ll Need
Only 4 ingredients stand between you and a tray full of cheesy goodness:
- 1 pound sausage (mild or spicy—your choice!)
- 2 cups Bisquick
- 4 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup milk
👩‍🍳 How to Make 4-Ingredient Sausage Balls
1. Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. Mix It All Up
In a large mixing bowl, combine:
- Ground sausage
- Bisquick
- Shredded cheddar cheese
- Milk
Use your hands or a sturdy spoon to mix everything together until well combined. The dough will be thick and slightly sticky—totally normal!
3. Roll Into Balls
Take small scoops of the mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Space them out slightly on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Bake Until Golden
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the sausage balls are golden brown and fully cooked through.
5. Cool & Serve
Let them cool just a few minutes, then serve warm. They’re great on their own or dipped in ranch, mustard, or your favorite sauce.
đź’ˇ Tips for Success
- Use freshly shredded cheese if possible—it melts better than the pre-shredded kind.
- If your dough feels dry, add another splash of milk to help it come together.
- For crispier edges, bake on a wire rack set on top of the baking sheet.
- These freeze beautifully—freeze unbaked balls for future use or store leftovers in the fridge and reheat as needed.
