Sausage & Cheese Bread

Jump to Recipe

Warm, cheesy, and packed with savory flavor is what this bread is all about!  It’s just the thing to serve with soup and salad or toasted for breakfast.

sausage and cheese bread
We are big-time soup lovers here and I am always on the lookout for a little something to serve on the side so, when I ran across my favorite recipe for cheese balls, it got me thinking…how about making this into a loaf.  There were just a few changes I needed to make to turn this into bread and happily, it worked.  I served nice, thick slices alongside a bowl of cannelloni bean soup and we celebrated a happy Wednesday.
This bread is great served for any meal and it’s also is a great treat to give to folks during the holidays. Every Christmas, I make several loaves, wrap them in cellophane then tie the whole package up with a pretty ribbon. My friends and neighbors love getting a homemade gift especially one that tastes this good!

    • I was planning making this bread for breakfast. But saw you serve this with soup. Do you think it will be good with stuffed pepper soup. This hats what I’m making in my crockpot right now?

        • Hey Veronica.
          I’ve never made this bread in a muffin tin. If you want to give it a try, I would start checking for doneness around the 30 minute mark.
          Let me know how things turn out.

    • Hey Lynn. Good question. You need the mayo for the "fat/oil" plus other flavors. I'd try some light oil, maybe canola but also would add a little salt and squeeze of lemon to get the right taste. Let me know what you think. And BTW…mayo is not a bad thing, it's easy to make your own and can be light and with lots of flavor!
      Happy 2014. friend!

  9. We loved it. Found the recipe on interest today and my daughter made it tonight. We used cottage cheese instead of the mayo and that was great. Sausage balls are always a fav in our house so we are very happy to have found this recipe.

  18. Oh, Donya! This looks so good! I can't wait to try this recipe. I think I will use the bread as a base for Eggs Benedict and serve fresh sliced tomatoes. YUMM!!! 😉

  22. Wondering if this bread can be made ahead of time of my event and put in the freezer? If so, how would you recommend that it be reheated?

    Reply

    • Yes it can be made ahead of time. Just wrap in tin foil and heat in a low oven, say 300 for about 15 to 20 minutes.
      Thanks for stopping by!

  25. Noelle,
    You can certainly try. I’m not sure how the texture will turn out with just straight cornmeal since Bisquick has leavening agents. Let me know how it works out.

  27. I am going to try this in the new year as muffins. Will probably freeze them and use as a grab and go breakfast or lunch. In the past I have done something similar by adding sausage to the Red Lobster biscuit mix.

  29. Made this for coffee after church. Went over really well. I added extra sage, red pepper flakes, and some green peppers.. Next time I may use a little less bisquick. It was a little dry. Good recipe to try.

    • Hey Jamie. Thanks for comment. The recipe has been updated. The early cook time was incorrect.
      Have a great day!

    I’ve made this a couple times. Once to serve a group while camping. It was a hit! I’m curious though, do you think you could omit the mayo and leave the sausage uncooked? I’ve always made my sausage balls with uncooked sausage and thought that it might work here too.

    • Hey Monnica.
      I’m not sure about the uncooked sausage but you could give it a try. If you do, please let me know. I’d love to hear how things turn out.
      Thank you so much for the 5 stars!
      Have a wonderful day,
