McGriddle Breakfast Muffins

Servings: 12 muffins
Ingredients
- 1 lb turkey breakfast sausages
- 1.5 cups milk
- 3 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups + 2 tablespoon protein pancake mix Use a just add water mix!
- ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F and prepare a 12-cavity muffin tin.
- In a large pan over medium-high heat cook the turkey sausages until browned and fully cooked. Once cooked, allow to cool and chop into bite sized pieces.
- To a large mixing bowl, whisk together milk, maple syrup and eggs.
- Slowly stir in the protein pancake mix.
- Once smooth, stir in cooked sausage pieces and shredded cheese if using.
- To a muffin tray, add about ¼ cup of batter into each cavity ( I use a large cookie scoop). Divide any excess batter amongst the cavities. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until fully cooked and a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffins will come out clean.
Notes
These muffins are best eaten warm with a little maple syrup.
Don't have protein pancake mix? Substiute 1 ¼ cups of all purpose flour + ½ cup unflavoured protein powder
