Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground breakfast sausage
- 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 6 pieces English muffins, split
- 2 tablespoons Butter (optional, for toasting muffins)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground breakfast sausage, breaking it into small crumbles as it cooks. Cook until no pink remains, about 7-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Transfer the cooked sausage to a large mixing bowl and let it cool slightly. Once cooled, add the shredded cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until the mixture is well combined and creamy.
If desired, lightly butter the cut sides of the English muffins and toast them until golden brown either in a skillet or under a broiler.
Place the English muffin halves, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet. Evenly divide the sausage mixture among the 12 muffin halves, spreading it out to cover the surface.
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm!
