Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl, and mix well by hand using gloves until the mixture is well combined and no flour is remaining.

Using a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop, shape the mixture into about 48-50 (1-inch) balls, and place on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper.

Bake in a preheated oven until lightly golden and firm to the touch, approximately 14 to 17 minutes.

Remove from the oven, allow the sausage balls to cool on the baking sheet placed over a wire cooling rack for 10 minutes.

Serve warm or at room temperature.
