Pancake Sausage Balls
This fun and easy recipe does not disappoint! With just 4 simple ingredients you can whip up the yummiest breakfast you'll ever make for your family. Sunday brunch just got a little more exciting!
Servings: 28 sausage balls
Ingredients
- 2½ cups pancake mix (any brand will work)
- 1 pound breakfast sausage (uncooked)
- 2 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup milk
- syrup for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add the dry pancake mix, uncooked sausage, shredded cheese, and milk into a mixing bowl.
- Mix all ingredients using a stand mixer, spoon, or your hands until mixed evenly.
- Using a cookie dough scoop or spoon, form small balls and place them about an inch apart on your prepared baking sheet. I made 28 total.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until they are cooked through and golden brown on top.
- Serve warm with syrup and ENJOY!
Notes
- The pancake mix will be used DRY, no need to make the batter.
- Double the recipe and store uneaten pancake sausage bites in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to eat, defrost overnight in the refrigerator and reheat in the microwave for 30 second intervals until warm.
- I like to use a block of cheddar cheese and shred it myself. It tastes so much better than pre-shredded cheese and holds together better when baking.
- If you don't have parchment paper for your baking sheet, make sure to grease the baking sheet with cooking spray before using.
