Ingredients

• 1 lb breakfast sausage
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
• 8 slices bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Oven

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking tray or shallow baking pan with aluminum foil for easier cleanup.

Step 2: Combine the Ingredients

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the breakfast sausage, softened cream cheese, 1 cup of shredded cheddar, and half of the crumbled bacon. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Step 3: Shape the Bombs

Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. Arrange them on the prepared baking tray, leaving a little space between each one.

Step 4: Add the Toppings

Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon over the sausage balls, distributing the toppings evenly.

Step 5: Bake Until Golden

Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the sausage is fully cooked and the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden. The internal temperature of the sausage should reach 160°F (71°C).

Step 6: Cool and Serve

Allow the Bacon Beaumont Bombs to rest for about 5 minutes before serving. This helps the cheese settle slightly and makes them easier to handle.

Serving Suggestions

Enjoy these cheesy bites straight from the oven with ranch dressing, spicy mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce. Add fresh vegetables and pickles to the platter for a delicious contrast to their rich, smoky flavor.

Tip: For the best texture, cook the bacon until crisp before crumbling it into the mixture. You can also prepare the sausage balls ahead of time and refrigerate them until you’re ready to bake.
