INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 pound Jimmy Dean Sausage, browned and drained (I like the hot variety)
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 4 eggs
  • 4.5 tbsp butter, melted and cooled
  • 2 tbsp sour cream
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour (heaping)
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional, but I love garlic!)

INSTRUCTIONS:

  2. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a large baking sheet with non-stick foil or parchment paper.

  3. Brown and drain the sausage, chopping it into small chunks; set aside.

  4. In a medium to large size bowl, combine the melted and cooled butter, eggs, sour cream, salt and garlic. Whisk together.

  5. Add the coconut flour (slightly more than 1/3 cup) and baking powder to the mixture and whisk until well combined.

  6. Stir in the browned sausage and cheese.

  7. Roll or drop batter into 1 inch balls onto your lined baking sheet. I make 35 and they fit perfectly (5 rows of 7). They only need to be about 1/2 inch apart …
