Keto Low Carb Cream Cheese Sausage Balls
This Sausage Balls recipe has cream cheese which helps to keep them from becoming too dry. They are moist and delicious. There is no Bisquick mix or any other boxed mixes in this recipe.
Tips For Making Keto Cream Cheese Sausage Balls
- You can use mild or hot sausage depending on your preference. Or a combination of both. I usually use mild sausage.
- I always freshly grate my cheese from a block of cheese. I have not tried this recipe using pre-shredded cheese.
- Use parchment paper on cookie sheet for quicker clean up.
- For consistent sizing of sausage balls use a cookie scoop.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!! This is my new favorite breakfast!! I added a couple teaspoons of garlic – So good!!
Hi Martha! So glad you liked it! Thanks for commenting and adding garlic was a great idea!
I just made these. So great! Before eating keto I made the Bisquick version. This is so close to that one. I used hot sausage and sharp cheese. I also stirred it together by hand using a wooden spoon. Pretty easy mixing. Used a small 1T cookie scoop. So easy. I will freeze most of them and pull out what I need and bake or microwave as needed. I get so tired of bacon and eggs so I’m really excited to find this recipe. I had tired another recipe that didn’t have the flours. Not nearly as good. Thanks so much for sharing.
