I found this recipe looking through a magazine one day and knew I had to make it. At my house we love having a "special breakfast" once a week. It creates a nice change from our usual breakfasts.
To me the name of this recipe does not totally do it justice. Part of the name is correct, they are amazing, but the rest does not fit. I would probably rename them something like Amazing Breakfast Muffins or Amazing Breakfast Cups.
This recipe is extremely easy to tailor to your individual likes; you can mix in whatever you would like to or what you happen to have on hand that day. Just remember it all has to fit into 12 muffin tins.
Amazing Muffin Cups
Ingredients:
- 3 cups frozen hash browns, thawed
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 12 breakfast sausage links
- 6 eggs
- 2 cups Mexican blend cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup red bell pepper, chopped
- fresh chives or green onions, chopped
Directions:
- In a bowl, combine the hash browns, butter and pepper.
- Press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased muffin tin.
- Bake at 400 degrees F for 12 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Meanwhile, cook the sausage according to package directions, cut into 1/2 inch pieces and divide sausage among muffin tins.
- Combine the eggs, cheese and bell pepper.
- Spoon over sausage.
- Sprinkle with chives or green onions.
- Bake 13-15 minutes or until set.
