Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup egg whites (60g)
  • 1/4 cup water (60g)
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free pancake syrup (60g) can sub maple syrup
  • 1/4 tsp maple extract optional
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup pancake mix (172g) use GF if needed. I used Bisquick
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup 2% shredded cheese (112g)
  • 1.5 cup turkey sausage crumbles (171g)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray muffin pan with cooking spray. 
  2. Add the eggs, egg whites, water, syrup, maple extract (if using), salt and pepper to a large bowl. Whisk together until combined. 
  3. Then add the pancake mix and baking powder. Use your whisk to mix just until the dry ingredients are incorporated. Be careful not to overmix – that may make the muffins more dense.
  4. Finally, fold in the cheese and  turkey sausage crumbles. Pour batter evenly amongst the 12 muffin cavities filling most of the way full. You should have enough leftover mixture to make four more muffins. 
  5. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. 
  6. Let sit for 5 or so minutes, then transfer muffins to a wire rack to cool. Spray muffin cavities again with cooking spray (just 4 this time) and add the remaining batter. Bake again until done. Serve sausage egg muffins with pancake syrup or yellow mustard (like a sausage and cheese biscuit!) and enjoy!
