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.

I can’t say enough about this simple awesome recipe. First time baking with almond and coconut flour. Used aluminum free baking powder. I did add 1/2 teaspoon of Italian spice, 1/4 teaspoon of onion and garlic powder as well as 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Recipe made 50 healthy small cookie scoops of sausage balls. We ate with gluten free marinara sauce, to die for. Thank you so much for sharing this easy to follow recipe! It’s a keeper, great to share with friends and family.

These were delicious! I was super excited to find that they tasted almost exactly like my old Bisquick sausage balls. My picky 13 daughter who adores sausage balls did not even notice that they were not the normal ones I make. We are all happy to eat these in the future.
