Experiment with different cheeses like pepperjack or mozzarella to suit your taste. Get creative and enjoy your personalized muffins!
What to Serve with Sausage Breakfast Muffins
These muffins are delicious on their own, but you can enhance them with a variety of sides. Try dipping them in ketchup or hot sauce for an extra burst of flavor. They also pair perfectly with a fresh fruit salad featuring melon, berries, and citrus, balancing the hearty muffins with sweetness. For a complete breakfast, serve with vanilla Greek yogurt; its creamy tanginess complements the spicy sausage and eggs beautifully.
