Ingredients
- 0.5 pound Ground breakfast sausage
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup Chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
Step 2
In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, crumble and cook the ground breakfast sausage until it is fully browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside to cool.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter until fully combined.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Step 6
Fold the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions into the batter until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Evenly spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 9
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
