Johnsonville Sausage Balls

4.4 of 5 Average (7 reviews)

Latest Review

Deflated but tasty.I followed the recipe exactly except maybe making the balls a bit too large. I had to extend the baking time to 25 min. They just turned into puddles! I will try again with the allrecipes version that doesn't pre-brown the sausage and has more bisquick next try. The mushroom seemed unneeded but will add chives and 1/4 tsp. pepper. — C clark

Deflated but tasty

And another easy idea

by Susan stephenson 2 years ago

I quadrupled the batch and mixed hot, sweet and mild together. Then, added the other ingredients per recipe and rolled them into walnut size balls, baked them as directed. I did line the sided cookie sheet with parchment paper. Upon cooling, I lined a cookie tin with tin foil and placed there balls in layers between waxed paper and into the freezer. Now, they're ready for gift giving . NO need for dipping sauce, but I have homemade pepper jelly and will give a jar of this with my gift. Then, I have grainy German tangy mustard to accompany another gift. The rest will get them without condiments! Quick, no fuss, and easy clean up My home smells wonderful!

Old Family Christmas Tradition

by Tammie 3 years ago

I've been making these for a zillion years. However I don't brown my sausage first. I mis all the ingredients together & bake @ 375 for 15-20 min. Can freeze before or after cooking. Take out of freezer 15 min or so ahead & then bake as directed or reheat in microwave or oven. Can also make gluten free.

i add

by Kristi hughes 5 years ago

I add parmesan, garlic, peperoncinis and butter. Yeah it's that awesome and I layer it in a jelly roll pan and bake til it is crunchy crispy. Awesome!! (Muffin cups work, too.) Sometimes I use ready to go corn muffin or bread mix or combination of both and add sage. That's the fam's fav! Love this, big hit!!

I suspect "baking mix" is like Bisquick ... flour mixed with leavening agents.

Can you fix it all together, even roll them out, and refrigerate then cook them the next morning?

Do you use regular corn muffin mix? Like Jiffy? And how much do you use? The equivalent of the baking mix? Thank you.

Bisquick is the "baking mix". It is near the flour at the grocery store. Or make your own, it's easy (just Google homemade bisquick or baking mix).

FOR SURE!

by acceptance16 5 years ago

I've made these for years. They are always a hit with any crowd. Make them ahead, freeze, pop them in the oven and you are ready to go.

Irresistibly Popable!

by Elizabeth 5 years ago

These were super easy to make and everyone loved them. I easily could have doubled the batch and still would have run out. I will definitely try them again. Although I don’t think the dipping sauces are necessary. They’re delicious as is! The hot italian sausage gives them a great kick.

You are correct. Dipping sauces are not needed.
