Gluten Free Jalapeno Sausage Balls






This recipe is an variation on a Paula Deen recipe  from "Paula Deen's Southern Cooking Bible".  I made it gluten free and substituted chicken sausage for pork sausage. I used some salt and pepper for additional flavor to make up for some blandness in the turkey sausage.  For a dipping sauce, I like ranch dressing to balance the spiciness.  The recipe calles for one small jalapeno pepper feel free to increase this to taste.


 Beautifully browned cheese and jalapenos

Recipe: 

1 1/3 cup gluten free all-purpose baking mix
1 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 pound chicken sausage
1 1/2 tablespoon butter, cubed
1/2 jalapeno pepper, minced
2-6 tablespoons milk, as needed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl, add milk as needed to moisten dry ingredients and make batter come together. Roll into 1" balls: place on a greased cookie sheet 1/4 " apart.  Bake 28-30 minutes until browned.
May be served with any dipping sauce you like or alone.
