Here’s a step-by-step guide to making Sausage Muffins with Bisquick.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- 2 cups Bisquick mix
- 1 cup milk (whole, 2%, or skim)
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled (pork, turkey, or chicken sausage)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onions (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder or paprika for extra flavor
(Tip: You can also add diced bell peppers, jalapeños, or chopped spinach for a veggie boost.)
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Preheat Oven and Prepare Muffin Pan
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter, oil, or nonstick spray, or line with paper muffin liners for easy removal.
Step 2: Cook the Sausage
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook your sausage until fully browned.
- Drain excess grease and let the sausage cool slightly.
(Tip: Pre-cooking prevents soggy muffins and ensures evenly cooked sausage.)
Step 3: Mix the Batter
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the Bisquick mix, milk, and egg.
- Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix—the batter should be slightly lumpy.
