Start your day with these delicious, protein-packed Sausage Muffins! Combining savory breakfast sausage, fluffy eggs, and sharp cheddar cheese, these easy-to-make muffins are perfect for a quick breakfast or a grab-and-go snack.
Equipment
- Large skillet
- 12-cup muffin pan
- Mixing Bowl
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 4 large eggs beaten
- 1.5 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese divided
- 1 cup Bisquick baking mix
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside, ready for action!
- Grab a large skillet and brown the ground breakfast sausage over medium-high heat. As it cooks, use a spatula or spoon to break it apart into crumbles.
- Once the sausage is fully cooked and browned, carefully use a slotted spoon to transfer the sausage pieces to a plate lined with paper towels. This helps drain away any extra grease, making your muffins lighter and healthier!
- While the sausage cools down a bit, in a spacious mixing bowl, whisk together the Bisquick baking mix and garlic powder until they're well combined.
- Now, add the beaten eggs and 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese to the Bisquick mixture. Stir everything gently until just combined—don't overmix!
- Carefully fold the drained, cooked sausage into the muffin batter. Stir just enough so the sausage is evenly distributed throughout.
- Divide this savory mixture evenly among the wells of your prepared muffin pan. A large cookie scoop is super handy for this step!
- Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of shredded cheese over the top of each muffin cup for that extra cheesy goodness.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Serve these warm, protein-packed muffins for a delicious and easy start to your day!
