🍽 Ingredients

📖 Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin well. This will prevent sticking and make it easier to remove the muffins later. Don't skip this step; trust me!
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, and pepper. Make sure the eggs are well beaten and combined with the cream. You're aiming for a slightly frothy consistency.
  3. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and crumbly. Drain off any excess grease. This step adds amazing flavor and texture. Make sure you don't burn the sausage!
  4. Divide the cooked sausage evenly among the muffin cups, placing a spoonful in each. This is your delicious base! Don't overload the muffin cups, or the eggs won't cook properly.
  5. Carefully pour the egg mixture into the muffin cups, filling them about ¾ full. Try to distribute the egg mixture as evenly as possible. It's okay if they're not perfect; handmade is charming!
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are set and lightly golden brown. An easy way to check is to insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean. If it's still slightly wet, bake for another 2-3 minutes.
  7. Once baked, let the muffins cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them. Use a spatula to gently loosen the muffins from the tin.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy! These are wonderful on their own or paired with some fresh avocado or a side of Paleo-friendly salsa. You made it! Time to celebrate!

📝 Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the egg mixture.
  • Feel free to experiment with different types of sausage, such as Italian sausage or chorizo.
  • For an even richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk instead of heavy cream.
  • These muffins are best served fresh. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but they may not be as fluffy or moist as on the first day. Don't be sad about this; they're still good!
