This section explains how to choose the best toppings for egg and sausage muffins, the role of each in the recipe, and substitution options. See recipe card below for measurements.

• grated Italian sausage – You can use pork sausage, turkey sausage, chicken sausage or breakfast sausage, but be sure to use raw, ground sausage.
• Egg – Whole large eggs. You can technically use egg whites too – the ratio is 2.5 egg whites for each whole egg.
• heavy cream – I love the rich flavor and texture of heavy cream, but you can use any milk here, e.g. almond milk, hemp milkcoconut milk, half and half, or regular milk.
• cheddar cheese – For convenience, use shredded cheese or shred your own. Feel free to substitute other cheeses, such as pepper jack or mozzarella.
• sea ​​salt & Black pepper

Variation: Add vegetables.

If you want to add some vegetables, try some cooked broccoli, mushrooms, spinach, bell peppers or Caramelized Onions. See more variations in my main content Egg Muffins postal.

1. Brown sausage. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the crumbled sausages until brown, breaking up with a spoon or spatula.
2. Mix in egg mixture. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, sea salt and black pepper. Stir in the cheddar cheese.

3. Fill muffin cups. Line a muffin tin with parchment or silicone muffin liners (also sprayed with cooking spray if desired) and place sausages in muffin cups. Pour egg mixture over sausage.
