Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Cooked breakfast sausage (crumbled)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Step 3
Stir in the cooked and crumbled sausage and shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dry ingredients.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are lightly golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Enjoy warm, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat before serving if desired.
