Breakfast Egg Muffins

Ingredients

  • Yield 12 muffins
  • 1/2 lb ground Italian pork sausage
  • 4 oz frozen chopped broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 12 eggs
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 12 parchment paper muffin wrappers

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with parchment liners, or place silicone muffin cups on a baking sheet.
  2. Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it into crumbles, until it reaches 160°F (71°C). Drain any excess fat.
  3. Microwave the frozen broccoli until thawed, about 4 minutes, then drain well.
  4. Divide the sausage, broccoli and cheese among the muffin cups.
  5. Whisk the eggs with the salt and pepper. Pour the mixture into the cups, leaving about 1/4 inch at the top.
  6. Bake for about 25 minutes, until the eggs are fully set and reach 160°F (71°C). Rest for 5 minutes before serving.
