Maple Sausage Apple Balls

I made up a TON of these this weekend for a preschool parent breakfast this week. This recipe has been one of my favorite sausage ball recipes for a long time -- just slightly different than a regular one, but even yummier! I got the recipe off the maple sausage package a long time ago...when I bought the sausage this weekend, the recipe was still on the package! Enjoy!

1 package maple sausage
3/4 cup all purpose baking mix
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/3-1/2 cup grated granny smith apple
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375. Combine all ingredients in mixing bowl; stir well. Form into 1" balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool 5 minutes while still on the pan.

NOTE: Can be prepared ahead and frozen UNCOOKED. To bake from frozen, thaw on baking sheet approx 15 minutes. Then bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
