A must-have for the family gatherings and holiday celebrations! These sausage balls are made from scratch – with flour instead of store-bought biscuit mix, making it easier to adapt to your own flour preferences. You will find a wide variety of sausage flavors from Thistle Draw Farm at the market this week!


  • 1 pound bulk pork sausage, at room temperature
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese, at room temperature
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon seasoned salt
  • ¼ teaspoon dry mustard

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Combine sausage, cheddar cheese, flour, baking powder, salt, onion powder, seasoned salt, and dry mustard in a large bowl.

Form into walnut-size balls and place on rimmed nonstick baking sheets.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and no longer pink in the centers, about 20 minutes.
