Here’s a delicious Sausage & Cheese Muffins recipe—perfect for breakfast or a quick snack!

Ingredients:

• 1 pound (450g) breakfast sausage, crumbled

• 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or use liners.

7. Fill muffin cups about ¾ full with the batter.

8. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

9. Cool slightly before enjoying.

Tips:

• Use spicy sausage for extra kick.

• Try pepper jack cheese for added flavor.

• Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the microwave.
