Ingredients

• 1 pound ground breakfast sausage (any flavor)
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup Bisquick baking mix

Instructions

1. Cook the Sausage

   In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground sausage until fully cooked, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.

2. Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

3. Prepare the Muffin Mixture

   In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, and Bisquick mix until thoroughly combined.

4. Add the Sausage

   Fold the cooked sausage into the Bisquick mixture, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.

5. Prepare the Muffin Pan

   Grease 12 muffin cups in a muffin pan to prevent sticking.

6. Fill the Muffin Cups

   Spoon the mixture into the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ of the way full.

7. Bake

   Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden and set. Use a toothpick to test for doneness; it should come out clean.
