Easy Sausage Breakfast Muffins

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Stir in the cooked sausage, cheddar, and mozzarella until evenly combined.
  5. Pour the mixture evenly into the muffin cups.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the muffins are set and golden on top.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Variations

  • Add diced bell peppers, spinach, or mushrooms for extra nutrients.
  • Swap cheddar for pepper jack or Swiss for a different flavor profile.
  • Use turkey sausage or chorizo instead of breakfast sausage.
  • Stir in a pinch of smoked paprika for added depth.

Tips

  • Allow muffins to cool before freezing; reheat in the microwave for a quick breakfast.
  • Spray or grease the muffin tin thoroughly to prevent sticking.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
