Cuisine: paleo, gluten-free
Serves: 30
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds breakfast sausage
  • 1 sweet potato, shredded
  • 1 yellow onion, finely diced
  • 4 medjool dates, pitted and finely chopped or pulsed in food processor with the bacon
  • 8 slices bacon, cooked and finely chopped or pulsed in food processor with the dates
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
  1. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. The best way to do this is by using your hands.
  2. Roll into balls approximately 1.5" diameter.
  3. Place balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment. **At this point, you can freeze them on the baking sheet. When frozen, take them off the parchment and store in a ziptop freezer bag or other freezer-proof container. Take out as many as desired when ready to bake. You will need to increase baking time 10 minutes. Check to be sure they are fully cooked in the center before serving.
  4. Bake at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes until centers are cooked.
Notes
If you don't have coconut flour, you can use ¼ cup of any other flour.
You can use 8 regular pitted dates or 2 tablespoons maple syrup in place of the medjool dates.
