Why You’ll Love This Sausage Muffins with Bisquick

Sausage Muffins with Bisquick are everything you love about a comforting breakfast packed into a handheld muffin. They’re savory, cheesy, and super filling—perfect for both kids and adults. Plus, they’re freezer-friendly, which means you can make a big batch and always have breakfast ready.

Preparation Phase & Tools to Use

Essential Tools and Equipment:

Muffin Tin: This is non-negotiable. It shapes the muffins perfectly, creating those crisp golden edges while keeping everything neatly contained.
Mixing Bowls: You’ll need at least two—one for whisking the eggs and another for combining the Bisquick mixture.
Whisk or Fork: Crucial for beating the eggs evenly and ensuring a smooth consistency.
Measuring Cups & Spoons: Precision is key to fluffy, balanced muffins.
Spatula or Spoon: For folding in the ingredients gently without over-mixing.

Each of these tools helps speed up prep and guarantees that your muffins come out tender and well-structured every time.

Ingredients for the Sausage Muffins with Bisquick

Bisquick Mix: The heart of this recipe. It provides structure, fluff, and a perfectly soft muffin base.
Ground Sausage: Brings a hearty, savory richness that pairs deliciously with eggs and cheese.
Eggs: Help bind the muffins and add a protein boost while keeping them moist.
Milk: Adds creaminess to the mix and loosens the batter for an even pour.
Shredded Cheddar Cheese: Melts beautifully, creating gooey pockets of cheesy flavor.
Broccoli (optional): A great way to sneak in greens and add a subtle crunch.
Salt & Pepper: To taste, for simple seasoning that enhances every bite.

How To Make the Sausage Muffins with Bisquick

Step 1: Cook the Sausage

In a skillet over medium heat, cook your sausage until browned and crumbly. Drain any excess grease and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2: Prepare the Wet Mix

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined. This creates the liquid base that will bind everything together.

Step 3: Combine the Batter

Add the Bisquick mix to the wet ingredients and stir gently to form a smooth batter. Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins tender.

Step 4: Fold in Fillings

Add the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar, and chopped broccoli (if using). Stir until evenly distributed.

Step 5: Fill the Muffin Tin

Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners. Spoon the batter into each cup, filling them about 3/4 full.

Step 6: Bake

Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 7: Cool & Serve

Let muffins cool for a few minutes in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack. Serve warm or let them cool completely for storage.

How to Serve and Store These Muffins

These sausage muffins are incredibly versatile. Serve them fresh out of the oven with a dollop of sour cream or a splash of hot sauce for a spicy kick. They’re also delicious with a side of fruit or a warm cup of coffee.

To store, allow the muffins to cool completely before placing them in an airtight container. They keep well in the fridge for up to 5 days and freeze beautifully for up to 3 months. To reheat, microwave for 20-30 seconds or warm in the oven until heated through.
