Ingredients:
- 1 pound (about 450g) breakfast sausage: Choose your favorite type – mild, hot, or sage flavored. Ground pork sausage is traditional, but you can use ground turkey or chicken sausage for a leaner alternative.
- 12 large eggs: These form the base of your muffins, providing structure and richness.
- 1/2 cup (120ml) milk: Whole milk, 2%, or even unsweetened almond milk works to thin out the egg mixture slightly and make the muffins more tender and fluffy.
- 1/4 cup (approx. 30g) all-purpose flour: This is an optional but recommended ingredient. It helps to bind the egg mixture and prevent the muffins from becoming watery, contributing to a better texture. You can omit it for a lower-carb version, but the muffins might be slightly more delicate.
- 1 teaspoon baking powder: Helps the muffins rise slightly and become light and airy.
- 1/2 teaspoon salt: Adjust to taste, especially considering the saltiness of the sausage and cheese.
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper: Freshly ground is preferred for better flavor.
- 2 cups (approx. 225g) shredded cheddar cheese: Divided. Sharp or mild cheddar works beautifully. You can also use a blend like Colby Jack, Monterey Jack, or a Mexican blend for variety. About 1.5 cups for mixing in, and 0.5 cups for topping.
- Optional add-ins (choose any combination, about 1/2 to 1 cup total):
- 1/2 cup finely diced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/2 cup finely diced onion (yellow or white)
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped (sautéed and squeezed dry if using a larger quantity)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives or green onions
- 1/4 cup chopped mushrooms, sautéed
- Cooking spray or muffin liners: For preparing the muffin tin.
