Blue Ribbon Recipe

This low carb muffin is a delicious breakfast option. The texture is more like eggs than a muffin but still tasty. Italian sausage and cheese add tons of flavor. We loved that the recipe makes exactly 6 muffins. A great meal prep option. Make these on Sunday and you'll have breakfast prepared for the week.

How To Make sausage, egg & cheese coconut flour muffins

Stir in coconut flour until no lumps remain.
Step 4

Fold in 3/4 cup cheese and the sausage.
Step 5

Fill 6 greased muffin cups with batter. Sprinkle tops of muffins with remaining cheese.
Step 6

Bake at 400 degrees F. (205 c) for 15 minutes. High altitude: Move oven rack to the top level and bake at 375 F for 18 minutes.
Step 7

Variation: Use chopped cooked bacon or spicy sausage in place of the mild sausage.
Step 8

Note: There is no leavening in this recipe. The muffins will not rise, so you can fill the muffin cups to the top. Muffins are a little more dense than usual.
