Start your day with these indulgent breakfast meatloaf muffins packed with sausage, bacon, and cheese. A crazy good breakfast win!
Ingredients
- • Ground breakfast sausage: 1 pound
- • Bacon, cooked and crumbled: 6 slices
- • Eggs: 2, beaten
- • Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded: 1 cup
- • Breadcrumbs: 1/2 cup
- • Milk: 1/4 cup
- • Worcestershire sauce: 1 tablespoon
- • Garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
- • Onion powder: 1 teaspoon
- • Black pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
- • Salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- • Chopped chives: 2 tablespoons for garnish
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease thoroughly to prevent sticking.
- 2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground breakfast sausage, crumbled bacon, beaten eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat mixture.
- 3 Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling them slightly above the rim as the meat will shrink slightly during cooking.
- 4 Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are browned and a thermometer inserted into the center reads 160°F (71°C).
- 5 Allow the muffins to cool slightly in the pan before transferring to a wire rack. Sprinkle with chopped chives for a fresh pop of color and flavor.
Serving Suggestions
- • These savory breakfast muffins are incredibly versatile and can be paired with a variety of sides to create a complete breakfast spread. Serve them alongside a fresh fruit salad for a touch of sweetness or pair with a simple arugula salad dressed in lemon vinaigrette for a refreshing contrast. For beverage pairings, consider a robust cup of coffee or a freshly squeezed orange juice to complement the rich flavors.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or until warmed through. Alternatively, you can microwave them on a microwave-safe plate for 1-2 minutes until hot. For longer storage, wrap each muffin individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to 3 months and thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
