Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- ¾ cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional Ingredients:
- ½ cup cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup maple syrup (plus extra for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a mini muffin pan.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined.
- Add additional ingredients: Gently fold in cooked sausage, cheddar cheese, and maple syrup.
- Bake: Divide the batter evenly among the mini muffin cups, filling about ¾ full. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Serve: Let cool for 5 minutes before serving with extra maple syrup for dipping.
Notes
- You can substitute bacon for sausage or use a mix of both.
- These freeze well—just reheat in the microwave or air fryer for a quick breakfast.
- For a sweeter bite, drizzle with warm maple syrup before serving.
