Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a muffin tin or line it with paper muffin cups.
Cook the Sausage
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease and set it aside to cool slightly.
Mix the Batter
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Gradually add the Bisquick mix, stirring until a thick batter forms.
Add Cheese and Sausage
Fold the shredded cheddar cheese and cooked sausage into the batter. Add black pepper, if using, and mix until evenly distributed.
Fill Muffin Cups
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake
Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18–22 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 for a few minutes in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack. Serve warm and enjoy!
Serving Suggestions
Pair these muffins with a side of fresh fruit or a green salad for a balanced meal.
They’re delicious on their own or served with a dollop of sour cream or a drizzle of hot sauce for an extra kick.
Storage Tips
Store leftover muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 15–20 seconds before serving. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months; just thaw and warm as needed.
Options and Variations
Spicy Kick: Use spicy sausage and add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
Vegetarian: Swap out sausage for sautéed mushrooms or veggie crumbles.
Cheese Lover’s Delight: Use a blend of cheeses like mozzarella, pepper jack, or gouda.
