Ingredients
- 1 ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 pound pork breakfast sausage
- 1 ¾ cup freshly grated Cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and have ready a rimmed baking sheet lined with nonstick aluminum foil or parchment paper.
- Add the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder to a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.
- Add the room temperature cream cheese, pork sausage, and Cheddar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and mix on medium speed just until combined. If you do not have a stand mixer, use a large bowl and a handheld mixer. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low until it is evenly distributed throughout the cream cheese/pork mixture.
- Scoop out generous tablespoon-sized mounds of the mixture and roll into balls. It should be about the size of a golf ball. Place on the baking sheet, about 1" apart from one another.
- Bake for 25-28 minutes, until the sausage is fully cooked and the exterior is properly browned. Allow to cool slightly and enjoy!
