Ingredients
1 lb ground beef sausage (fat content around 15-20%)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup almond flour
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C)
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef sausage, cream cheese, shredded cheddar, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Stir until all ingredients are well combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, shape the mixture into bite-sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Brush the top of each ball lightly with the beaten egg.
Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and crisp on the outside.
Cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Adjust seasoning to your taste by adding extra garlic or onion powder
These can be made ahead and frozen before baking for easy meal prep
Serve with a keto-friendly ranch or avocado dip for extra flavor.
