Keto Sausage Balls

Ingredients

• Mozzarella cheese

  Part skim milk

  1 ½ cup, shredded or 168g

• Cream cheese

  Low fat

  2 tbsp or 30g

• Almond Flour

  Trader Joe's - "Just Almond Meal"

  ¾ cup or 90g

• Egg

  Whole, fresh eggs

  1 large or 50g

• Pork sausage

  Fresh, raw

  8 oz or 227g

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Divide the sausage into equal portions, roll into balls, and cook until fully cooked. Set aside to cool.
3. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, then mix with a fork until smooth.
4. Add almond flour and egg to the cheese mixture and mix thoroughly. If needed, microwave for another 20 seconds to help combine.
5. Use a spatula or your hands to ensure the dough is evenly mixed. Divide into balls (1 for each portion being prepared).
6. Flatten each dough portion, place a cooked sausage ball in the center, and wrap the dough around it. Place seam side down on the baking sheet.
7. Repeat with remaining dough and sausage. Bake for 10-15 minutes, until the tops are browned.
8. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
