Tips
The sauerkraut helps the calorie count. At about 60 calories each, they are about like eating a cookie, but so much better! Makes about 11 dozen, 1 inch balls. A lot of work, but worth it for special occasions. We make them at Christmas and eat them through the New Year.
Directions
Brown sausage with onions and drain well. Add rest of ingredients and stir well. Refrigerate until cool. Roll into 1 inch balls. Dip in flour, then egg mixture, and coat with bread crumbs. Fry for 3 minutes or until browned and hot through.
Makes 11 dozen, 1 inch balls. Balls can be reheated on a cookie sheet at 375 degrees for 10 minutes, or microwaved for 30 seconds. Serve with a BBQ sauce for dipping, if desired.
