Whole30 Sausage Breakfast Balls

These little round Whole30 Sausage Breakfast Balls beauties are an absolute must for anyone needing a quick "grab and go" breakfast.  Keep them in the fridge and quickly reheat them and in about 10 seconds and you have a sinfully delicious, Whole30 breakfast of champions!

The inspiration for this recipe came after 2 failed attempts at making low carb, Whole30 approved biscuits.  The first batch did not rise and the second batch crumbled!  Even though Mr. Grumbles gave me his "look", he still ended up eating the tasty failures.

Since the taste was perfect, I decided to try combining the Whole30 approved sausage with the biscuit bake and shaping them into balls.

I closed my eyes as I bit into one, hoping that this was not going to be the 3rd failed attempt at creating something with a biscuit batter.  SUCCESS!  These were wonderfully flavourful and easy to "grab and go"... Sausage breakfast balls were born!

Tips and Substitutions for these Whole30 Sausage Breakfast Balls

• If you can tolerate milk, add 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the mixture
• To make them "nut-free" replace the almond flour with coconut flour but reduce the amount in half
• If you have any leftover veggies, simply finely chop them and add them to the mixture
• To lighten the fat content, replace the pork with lean ground turkey or chicken
• Add a couple of tablespoons of maple syrup to the mixture to add a little sweetness
• Add a couple of tablespoons of hot sauce to add some spiciness

How do you make these Whole30 Sausage Breakfast Balls?

• Grab a large mixing bowl and add 1 lb of ground pork (or turkey/chicken).
• Add all the seasonings and the egg to the meat mixture as well as the flour. I used my hands to make sure everything was well incorporated.

• take approximately 2 tablespoon of the meat mixture and form it into a ball.
• Roll the ball between both your hands to make sure that it is nice and compact.
• Repeat until you have 16 uniform balls.
• Spray a 9 x 9 or 8 x 8 square baking dish and place the balls in the dish.

• Bake them in the oven until fully cooked.

That's it!  You can store these in the fridge for 3 days or simply place them in the freezer and reheat them for 30-45 seconds in the microwave.
