Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 (16.3-ounce) can of large refrigerated biscuits (8 count)
  • 1 pound ground pork sausage
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Equipment

  • 12-cup muffin tin
  • Medium skillet

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grab a standard 12-cup muffin tin and grease it generously with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
  2. In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground sausage until it's browned and fully cooked through, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Once done, drain off any excess grease.
  3. While the sausage cooks, open your can of biscuits. Separate the 8 biscuits and press each one into a muffin cup, making sure to push the dough up the sides to form a small cup or tart-like shape.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk the 4 eggs together. Stir in the cooked sausage and the 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until everything is well combined.
  5. Carefully spoon the egg, sausage, and cheese mixture evenly into each of the 8 biscuit cups.
  6. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and the egg mixture is set. Let them cool in the pan for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Tips for success include greasing the pan thoroughly, pressing the biscuit dough thinly, draining all excess grease from the sausage, and letting the muffins rest for 5 minutes after baking. This recipe is versatile: substitute sausage with bacon or ham, use different cheeses like pepper jack, or add cooked vegetables like spinach or bell peppers.
