Breakfast Muffins

makes 10 muffins

Ingredients

1 can refrigerated biscuits

1 lb breakfast sausage

1 – 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

8 large eggs

1/2 cup milk or heavy cream

salt & pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Cook sausage in skillet until brown.  Crumble into small pieces while cooking. 
  3. Meanwhile spray a 12 muffin tin with Pam (note you will only use 10 muffin cups).   Place one biscuit into each hole.  Press biscuit into tin and up the sides to form a shell. 
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs and milk together.  Salt & pepper eggs to taste.
  5. Divide cooked sausage evenly on top of the biscuits in the prepared muffin cups.  Press sausage into the biscuit.  Sprinkle muffins with 1/2 cup cheese.
  6. Pour egg mixture into each cup leaving enough room to top with remaining cheese.  There is not a lot of room left in the tin so be careful to not overfill.  Note the muffins will rise above the muffin pan but should not overflow.
  7. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of each muffin. 
  8. Bake in the oven for 18 – 22 minutes.

Enjoy!
