Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground breakfast sausage
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 Eggs
• 1 cup Milk
• 1.5 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup Oil or melted butter
• 0.25 cup Green onions, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

Step 2

In a skillet, cook the ground sausage over medium heat, breaking it into small pieces, until fully cooked. Drain excess grease and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the milk and oil or melted butter.

Step 5

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined.

Step 6

Fold in the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions (if using). Be careful not to overmix to ensure the muffins remain tender.

Step 7

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

To freeze for OAMC, wrap each cooled muffin individually in plastic wrap and store them in a freezer-safe bag or container. For reheating, unwrap and microwave on high for 30–60 seconds, or until heated through.
