I’m not the kind of person who usually brags about my cooking. I don’t have a secret chili recipe. I’ve never won a pie contest. But I will tell you this — these Sausage Breakfast Muffins are hands-down one of the best things I’ve ever made.

They’re hearty, satisfying, and yes — they only require 4 simple ingredients. No chopping. No fancy kitchen gadgets. Just a bowl, a pan, and a muffin tin.

Even my husband, who usually just grabs coffee and runs out the door, stops in his tracks for these. I made a batch on Sunday morning, and by Wednesday, they were gone. He kept saying, “You’re kidding me — this is just four things?”

Nope. And that’s the beauty of them.

Why You’ll Love These Muffins
They’re perfect for:

Busy mornings when you need something fast and filling
Make-ahead meal prep (they freeze beautifully!)
Weekend brunches when you want something easy but still a little special
Feeding picky eaters or surprise guests
They’re soft on the inside, crispy on the edges, packed with flavor, and full of protein to keep you going all morning. Whether you’re eating one in the car or enjoying it with a cup of coffee on the porch, these muffins just hit the spot.

And yes, they come together with just four ingredients — no fluff, no filler.

Here’s What You’ll Need
Ingredient Amount
Breakfast sausage 1 pound
