Do you have chaos every weekday morning in your house? Every school year, we rush to get kids out the door. School starts in a week, and this year, I am thinking about how to make our mornings easier. Having a quick, ready-made breakfast is a great way to save time.
These deliciously filling egg muffin cups are a family favorite. They are an easy grab-and-go breakfast for busy families! (You will also love that these low-carb breakfast muffins are freezable too!)
You will love how easy these egg muffin cups are to make. I make them in a muffin tin, so I have 12 breakfast egg muffins. The kids usually eat two for breakfast each; then, I freeze the rest in a large freezer bag. It is so easy, and everyone gets a healthy breakfast with these Kids love this grab-and-go breakfast when hurrying out the door on their way to school.

I would think you would want to cook the sausage before hand, no? It doesn’t say to, but I always brown things.
Hi Lily, this recipe uses pre-cooked sliced sausage, not raw sausage. You can use raw but you are correct that it would need to be cooked.
How long will they last in the freezer before they go bad.
Hi Joy, if you keep them sealed up, they should keep up to 2 months in the freezer. Thank you for stopping by.
