FAQs
Why do my sausage balls turn out very dry?
If you have added too much of the Bisquick baking mix, your sausage balls will be dry. Add some milk to adjust the consistency.
Why do my sausage balls keep falling apart?
Fat is the most important ingredient that keeps your sausage balls stuck together. Your sausage balls will have this falling-apart nature if you have used low-fat sausage or packaged shredded cheddar cheese. You can add some milk to moisten.
Can I store the leftovers?
Yes, you can store the leftover baked sausage balls in the refrigerator or freezer safely in an airtight container. They will stay good for 3 days in the refrigerator and 3 months in the freezer.
