Sausage and Cheese Breakfast Muffins Recipe

Ingredients:

1 pound ground sausage

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup sour cream

1 large egg

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (plus extra for topping)

1/4 cup chopped green onions (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat Oven:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.

Cook Sausage:

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until it is browned and cooked through.

Drain any excess fat and set the sausage aside to cool slightly.

Mix Dry Ingredients:

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Mix Wet Ingredients:

In a separate bowl, combine the milk, sour cream, and egg. Mix well.

Combine Ingredients:

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Fold in the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions (if using).

Fill Muffin Tin:

Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Top each muffin with a little extra shredded cheddar cheese.

Bake:

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool and Serve:

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
