Notes
For added flavor, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika to the mixture. If the mixture is too sticky to handle, lightly oil your hands or use a small ice cream scoop for easier shaping. These sausage balls can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. Additionally, you can freeze the unbaked sausage balls and bake them directly from the freezer, just adjust the baking time slightly.
