How to Make Sausage Breakfast Muffins

1. Preheat Your Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan or use muffin liners for easy cleanup.

2. Cook the Sausage
Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Break it into crumbles and drain off any grease.

3. Mix Eggs, Cheese, and Bisquick
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Add the Bisquick mix and cheddar cheese, stirring until everything is evenly combined.

4. Combine With Sausage
Fold the cooked sausage into the mixture. Make sure it’s distributed well for consistent muffins.

5. Fill and Bake
Spoon the batter into each muffin cup, filling about two-thirds full. Bake for 20–22 minutes, or until golden and firm to the touch.

6. Cool and Serve
Let the muffins cool slightly before removing them. Serve warm or store for a grab-and-go meal anytime!
