Ingredients
- 1 lb bulk sausage Use raw (uncooked) sausage
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tbsp flaxseed meal (see note below if you don't have flaxseed meal on hand)
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 8 oz Cream Cheese room temp
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
- Mix all ingredients together into a large bowl until well incorporated. I find that using my hands is the best way to mix.

- Bake for 16 minutes and then move to the top rack and broil on high for 2-4 minutes until the tops get browned.
- Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
If you don't have flaxseed meal on hand, you can substitute it by adding one egg to the recipe.
