Good morning!
Well, whether you’re in the summer slump and looking to replace your kids’ bowls of cereal with something a bit more substantial or you’re already thinking about back to school season, the other day, I took our very beloved SAUSAGE BREAKFAST MUFFINS recipe and mix and matched it with bacon. Obviously, I had to share with the group 🙂 .
Just as a reminder, out of my 465 blog posts in 2025, the SAUSAGE BREAKFAST MUFFINS recipe post was the FIFTH most viewed.
Out of 465.
If you haven’t whipped up that version yet, you totally should.
These muffins are crazy easy, can be made ahead and even frozen too.
This time, I added chopped bacon and chives, but you could absolutely mix and match this a million different ways.
Enjoy! xx

Description
These muffins are crazy easy, can be made ahead and even frozen too. This time, I added chopped bacon and chives, but you could absolutely mix and match this a million different ways. Enjoy! xx
Ingredients
- about 10 pieces of crispy bacon, chopped
- 2 cups of pancake mix, we use Bisquick (you can use gluten-free too)
- 1 cup milk
- 1 egg
- ½ cup grated cheddar cheese
- a handful of snipped chives, optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees, and line your 12-count muffin tin with liners or spray it with Pam. Set aside.
- Make sure your bacon is cooked crispy and chopped before you begin.
- In your mixing bowl, add your bacon along with your Bisquick, milk, egg, cheese, and chives. Stir until combined and then divide between your muffin tin.
- Pop in the oven and bake 18 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Remove from oven to cool a few minutes and then enjoy!
Notes
You can prepare a big batch and freeze them for quick breakfasts too. After baking, allow the muffins to come to room temp before freezing. Simply microwave about 45 seconds and you’re ready to go. Use a gluten-free Bisquick for a g-free friendly recipe too.

I think I may have to try the bacon or sausage muffins. In a quest for higher protein, I just saw a recipe for sausage blueberry muffins and now I am wondering about putting meat in muffins!?
