Step 3 — Add Sausage and Cheese

Fold the cooked sausage into the batter.
Then add the shredded cheddar cheese (and green onions if using).

Stir just until everything is evenly distributed.
The key is not to overmix—this keeps the muffins tender.

Step 4 — Prepare Your Muffin Pan

Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin pan with oil or nonstick spray.
You can also use paper liners, but spraying the pan gives a better texture.

Fill each cup about ¾ full.
This ensures the muffins rise without overflowing.

Step 5 — Bake

Place the pan into a 375°F (190°C) oven.
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

The muffins will puff beautifully and smell incredible!

Step 6 — Cool and Serve

Let the muffins sit in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a rack.
Enjoy warm—or let them cool completely for meal prep.
