These are a Johnsonville Sausage recipe from their site: http://www.johnsonville.com/recipe/amazing-muffin-cups.html I make only half of the recipe (and that's what's shown in my recipe here) since theirs makes 12, and I change it up a bit to suit our tastes.

Categories     Meat Breakfast

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 links breakfast sausage
1 1/2 c shredded hash browns, thawed to room temp.
1 1/2 Tbsp melted butter
dash(es) onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
3 large eggs
1 Tbsp half and half or whole milk
1 c shredded mild cheddar cheese plus 1/4 cup for top
2 Tbsp finely-chopped green bell pepper, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray 6 tins of a 12-cup regular sized muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
  • 2. Cook sausage in a nonstick skillet on medium, turning, until cooked thoroughly. Slice into 1-inch slices and place on paper towels to drain off grease.
  • 3. While sausage is cooking, in a medium bowl, combine thawed hash browns, melted butter, onion powder and half of the salt and pepper, or to taste. Spoon evenly into prepared muffin tins, pressing up on sides and into bottoms firmly. Bake 12 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  • 4. In a medium bowl combine eggs, remaining salt and pepper or to taste and milk. Whisk until combined. Add cheese and green pepper, if used. Stir.
  • 5. Place sausage link slices evenly into cooked potato crusts.
  • 6. Pour egg mixture evenly over sausage. Add the 1/4 cup remaining cheese on top. Bake 12-15 minutes, or until egg is set, testing by touching middle of tops with finger until it bounces back.
  • 7. Remove and let cool 5 minutes in pan before eating.
  • 8. These are great stored in the refrigerator or freezer-just pop into the microwave if in fridge for 1 minute per muffin. If frozen, it may take 2 minutes in the microwave.

Categories     Other Breakfast

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 c frozen hash browns, thawed
3 Tbsp butter, melted
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
12 links johnsonville original breakfast sausage
6 eggs
2 c cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 c red bell pepper, chopped
chopped fresh chives or green onions

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl, combine the hash browns, butter, salt and pepper. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of 12 greased muffin cups.
  • 2. Bake in a preheated 400-degree oven for 12 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • 3. Meanwhile, cook sausage according to package directions, cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Divide sausage among muffin cups.
  • 4. Combine the eggs, cheese and bell pepper. Spoon over sausage. Sprinkle with chives or green onions. Bake in the 400-degree oven for 13-15 minutes, or until set.
  • 5. NOTE: You may double this recipe to make Jumbo Breakfast Muffin Cups. Use 6 greased jumbo muffin cups and bake hash browns in cups for 12 minutes, and bake the filled cups for 22-24 minutes or until set.

Tips:

  • Choose the right muffin cups: Use high-quality muffin cups that are sturdy enough to hold their shape in the oven. If you're using paper muffin cups, make sure they're greased or sprayed with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  • Fill the muffin cups evenly: Don't overfill the muffin cups, or the muffins will rise too much and spill over. Fill each cup about 2/3 full.
  • Bake the muffins at the right temperature: The oven temperature will vary depending on the recipe, so make sure to follow the recipe's instructions carefully. If the muffins are baked at too high a temperature, they will brown too quickly and may be undercooked in the center. If they're baked at too low a temperature, they will take too long to cook and may be dry.
  • Don't overbake the muffins: Muffins are best when they're just done baking. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly. To check if the muffins are done, insert a toothpick into the center of one of them. If it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving: Once the muffins are out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them to set and make them easier to handle.

Conclusion:

Muffin cups are a versatile and convenient way to bake muffins. They come in a variety of sizes and shapes, so you can find the perfect ones for your needs. With a little practice, you can make delicious muffins that are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. So next time you're in the mood for muffins, give muffin cups a try.
