Sausage balls are one of my favorite guilty pleasures...especially around the holidays! Here is what I did to make them lower carb. They are soooooo yummy!!!
1 block Cracker Barrel Extra Sharp Cheddar
1 Chub breakfast sausage ( I use mild, but spicy is good too!)
1 Cup Almond Flour
1 3/4 Cup Flax Flour
Preheat over to 350
Over low/medium heat melt cheese, then turn off heat, and add sausage. Mix well.
Pour sausage/cheese mix into large mixing bowl, add almond and flax flour slowly while combining. I usually have to use my hands to make it mix well.
Roll pieces of dough into little balls, and place on parchment lined baking sheet. Don't worry of they are almost touching, the dough doesn't rise much in the oven.
Bake about 25 minutes.
Careful pulling them out of the oven, the tray will be super greasy.
Serve hot or at room temp. THey are still tasty reheated in the microwave!
Enjoy!!
