Description

A straightforward recipe for savory sausage muffins.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, and oil until combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the cooked sausage and shredded cheese.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • You can substitute the breakfast sausage with cooked ground turkey or ham for a variation.
  • Shred your own cheese for the best melting results.
