Ingredients
Muffins
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 4 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 1/4 cups Red Lobster® Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
Gravy
- 2-3 tablespoons butter or neutral oil
- 1/4 cup Red Lobster® Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
- 2-2 1/2 cups milk
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and crumble the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked. Transfer sausage to a paper towel–lined plate, reserving the drippings in the skillet.
- Preheat oven to 375°F and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Stir in the cheddar cheese, cooked sausage, 1 ¼ cups of the Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix, and half of the seasoning packet included in the box until well combined.
- Scoop or spoon the mixture into the muffin pan, filling each cup about ¾ full.
- Bake 15–18 minutes, or until set in the center and lightly golden. Run a knife around the edges to loosen and transfer muffins to a serving plate.
- For the gravy, return the skillet with the sausage drippings to the stove and add neutral oil as needed to equal ¼ cup total grease. Heat over medium-high. Whisk in ¼ cup Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix and cook for 1 minute.
- Slowly whisk in the milk and cook 4–6 minutes, stirring frequently, until thick and creamy.
- Serve the muffins warm with the gravy on the side for dipping or spooning over the top.
Notes
Tips
- You can use various types of sausage, such as pork, turkey, or even a vegetarian sausage substitute, depending on your dietary preferences. The fat content will impact the moisture content of the cheese and sausage muffin. Add extra cheese or cream cheese if your sausage choice is lean.
- Don’t overfill the muffin cups to prevent spilling while baking.
- Use freshly shredded cheese for the best melt and texture.
- Reserve those sausage drippings. They add so much flavor to the gravy.
- Whisk constantly when making gravy to keep it smooth.
- Serve warm for the best flavor and texture!
