Savory Cottage Cheese Breakfast Muffins

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400F.

Step 2

Remove the sausages from the casing and cook them in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until browned and no longer pink in colour. Set aside and allow the cooked sausage meat to cool.

Step 3

To a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cottage cheese, olive oil and maple syrup.

Step 4

To the same bowl, add all purpose flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well using a wooden spoon or silicone spatula.

Step 5

Add your cooked sausages, chopped vegetables, green onions and cheese (I recommend leaving some cheese to add to the tops of your muffins).

Step 6

Divide batter evenly between 12 muffin cavities, about 4 heaping tbsp (¼ cup) of batter per muffin. Top with additional cheese and bake for 23-27 minutes.
