Ingredients

Scale

For the Base:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Filling:
- 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled sausage
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the cooked sausage, cheddar cheese, and chives.
Grease a mini muffin tin and spoon the batter into each cup, filling them about 3/4 full.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Let cool for a few minutes before removing from the tin.

Notes

These mini breakfast bites can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
To freeze, place them in an airtight container for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes.
Substitute sausage with cooked bacon or vegetables for a vegetarian option.
