Ingredients

3/4 cup almond flour
1 lb ground Italian sausage mild or hot
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese ideally hand-shredded
1 egg lightly beaten
2 tbsp heavy whipping cream
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp salt optional

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 F.
Add all ingredients to a mixing bowl and mix until well combined.
Using a cookie scoop and/or moistened hands, shape dough into balls of 1 1/2 tbsp each, placing them on a cookie sheet. Make sure the dough is very tightly packed.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, rotating the pan once during the baking cycle, until the sausage balls are browned and have reached a safe internal temperature of at least 160 F.

Notes

Cheddar cheese is a classic addition to this recipe, but feel free to swap it for your cheese of choice.
