Pork, Apple and Sage Savoury Bites

Pork, Apple and Sage Savoury Bites

With the Festive / party season fast approaching, wood burners being lit and the heating cranked up, these mini sage and apple savoury bites are the perfect taste tantaliser. They are easy to make and delicious eaten hot or cold. I usually make around 12-14 per batch, but you could make them smaller to make them more party finger food friendly or indeed bigger.

To make these I put all the raw ingredients in to one bowl and use my hands to get messy! I use butchers gluten-free sausage meat  but you could also use ground pork as both work really well. I personally would say I prefer the sausage meat taste and texture but either are delicious so the choice is yours! For those interested in the carb content (based on 12 balls) it is 2g carb per ball, so very blood sugar friendly!
