Ingredients:
6 large Eggs
Provides a rich source of protein and binds all the ingredients together.
1 cup Cooked Sausage (crumblled)
Offers a savory flavor and adds a hearty texture to each bite.
1 cup Shredded Cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
Melts perfectly for a rich and cheesy goodness that elevates these muffins.
1 cup Diced Tomatoes (fresh or canned)
Adds moisture and a burst of freshness; you can also use sun-dried tomatoes for an intensified flavor.
Instructions:
Preheat Your Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure even baking.
Prepare Muffin Tin:
Grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or line it with parchment liners for easy removal.
Mix the Base:
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until they are fully blended, creating a fluffy base for your muffins.
Combine Ingredients:
Stir in the crumbled sausage, shredded cheese, and diced tomatoes. Mix until all ingredients are well integrated. For added spice, consider mixing in ingredients like chopped bell peppers, spinach, or even jalapeños!
Fill Your Muffin Cups:
Carefully pour the mixture into the prepared muffin cups, filling each one about 3/4 full to allow for rising.
Bake:
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. The muffins are done when the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Storage Tips:
Refrigeration: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Freezing: For longer storage, individually wrap muffins in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. Thaw in the fridge overnight when ready to enjoy.
Enjoy!
