Sausage Muffins with Bisquick

2. Mix the Batter

• In a large bowl, combine Bisquick, cheese, milk, egg, and herbs (if using). Stir until just combined.
• Fold in cooled sausage.

3. Fill & Bake

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
• Divide batter evenly among cups (they’ll be full—this is normal!).
• Bake 14–16 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

4. Serve Warm

• Let cool 2–3 minutes in pan, then transfer to a wire rack.
• Best served warm with:
  • Maple syrup (yes, really—it’s a Southern favorite!)
  • Hot sauce or honey butter
  • Scrambled eggs on the side
