These are such an easy and simple breakfast idea! They take only minutes to mix together and then can be popped into the oven to bake. Of course, they don’t have to be just Sausage & Egg Muffins, you could add almost any meat and vegetables that you would like.
We live on a farm, so we have quite a few chickens. Which also means that we wind up having a lot of eggs. Any recipe that uses eggs around here is a winner!
My dad loves eggs. He eats them almost everyday for breakfast. Now, since I made these sausage & egg muffins, he eats them as a snack before he goes to bed. He said it’s because the protein before you go to sleep is good for you š
He loves anything healthy and the more vegetables, the better. After he ate the first batch I made, he was asking wanting some more. I made another batch, but made Bacon & Spinach ones. The recipe will be following soon!

Ingredients –
The basic ingredients to an egg muffin are
- Eggs (of course š)
- Salt
- Pepper
- Meat of your choice
- Vegetable (s) (if you want) of your choice
- Cheese (optional)
You can customize them in any way that you would like. For this specific egg muffin I used –
- Eggs
- Onions
- Turkey Sausage Patties
- Cheese
- Parsley Flakes
- Salt
- Pepper
I used frozen turkey sausage patties because I had some in the freezer and they are a lot faster to use than to cook a pound of raw sausage. Regular sausage patties or if you cook up some sausage and just crumble it will work just as well too
If you want to add bell peepers or spinach, go ahead and feel free to. I just chopped up some onion and added it.
What to do with Leftovers –
This is a great recipe to double and keep in the refrigerator to eat on throughout the week.
I just keep whatever leftovers I have in a plastic bag in the fridge. Then, whenever you want one, just pop it in the microwave for 20-30 seconds. Easy Breakfast!
My dad likes to just put hot sauce on his.
My mom likes to cut a muffin up and put it in a tortilla with hot sauce for a super quick breakfast burrito! She says it taste just as good as scrambling the eggs and adding everything, but it’s much quicker!
Notes –
- When you fill the muffin tin, remember to spray it with cooking spray, so the muffins will release easy and not tear
- Only fill the each muffin about 2/3 – 3/4 full. Do not fill to the top because they will rise a good bit
