Ingredients
- 200 grams Breakfast sausage
- 120 grams Shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 large Eggs
- 60 milliliters Milk
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped scallions (optional)
- 1 teaspoons Olive oil
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Crumble the breakfast sausage into the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until fully browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 3
Remove the cooked sausage from the skillet and transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess grease.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well combined. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper, and whisk again to incorporate.
Step 5
Stir in the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped scallions (if using). Mix until evenly combined.
Step 6
Evenly distribute the egg mixture into the prepared muffin tin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 of the way full.
Step 7
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg puffs are set and slightly golden on top.
Step 8
Remove the egg puffs from the oven and let them cool slightly in the tray for 5 minutes. Then, carefully use a butter knife to loosen the edges and remove them from the pan.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy! These egg puffs can also be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated as needed.
