I love this simple recipe for egg muffins, because it incorporates all of the components of breakfast. The base is made with prepared hash browns then add sausage, cheese, eggs, tomatoes and spinach… ALL in one bite! It easy to see why this would be a morning go-to for adults and kids! These egg muffins are also a fun and healthy way to start the day.

KEY ITEMS FOR SUCCESS

  • Prepared/ store bough hash browns– I used ‘Simply Hash Browns’ and you can find them in your local grocery store.
Layers of goodness!

QUICK STEPS TO MAKE BREAKFAST EGG MUFFINS

  1. Heat your oven to 350° f
  2. With your skillet on medium-high heat, brown your breakfast sausage. Use a wooden spoon to help break it apart. Remove sausage and drain it on a paper towel once it is cooked.
  3. Add 2 1/2 cups. of hash browns to the grease from the sausage. Toast them 5-7 minutes to remove some of the moisture.
  4. Whisk your eggs with milk, salt and Italian seasonings. Whisk until they are fluffy.
  5. Add a thin layer of hash browns to a greased muffin tin. Pat down your hash browns so that it acts as a little cup.
  6. Evenly disperse your breakfast sausage, Roma tomatoes, cheese and seasoned eggs to each section. Add the spinach last on the top.
  7. Place your breakfast muffins into the oven for 18 to 24 minutes.
  8. Check to see if they’re done by using a toothpick. If the toothpick comes out clean then they’re finished. They should come out nice and fluffy! 
  9. Use a fork to help remove each breakfast muffin. 
  10. Top them off with fresh salsa or sour cream. Enjoy!
