How to Make Rotel Sausage Hash Brown Muffins
These muffins are super easy to make with only a few simple ingredients. Brown sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain excess grease. Stir together sausage with eggs, milk, cheddar cheese, Rotel diced tomatoes and green chiles, onion powder, garlic powder, Bisquick, and shredded hash browns in a large bowl – season with salt and black pepper to taste. Spoon the batter into a muffin pan that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake in a preheated oven until set. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.
Helpful Tips & Frequently Asked Questions
- I use Jimmy Dean Breakfast Sausage. You can use any brand that you prefer. I like to use hot sausage in this recipe. It gives the muffins more flavor.
- For the hash brown potatoes, I used Simply Potatoes refrigerated shredded hash browns. Feel free to use frozen shredded hash browns. I would suggest letting the potatoes partially thaw before adding them to the batter. If you are short on time, pop them in the microwave to get them thawed.
- If you need a gluten-free recipe, make sure to use Gluten-Free Bisquick.
- Variations/Additions:
- green onions
- bell pepper
- mushrooms
- spinach
- chopped fresh chives
- I used a regular muffin pan for this recipe. Feel free to use a mini muffin pan. You will need to reduce the cooking time if you use the smaller muffin pan.
- Can Sausage Hash Brown Breakfast Muffins be frozen? Yes! Bake the muffins and let them cool completely. Place the muffins in a freezer bag and freeze for later. To reheat, pop the muffins in the microwave or wrap them in aluminum foil and bake at 350ºF until warm.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
What to Serve with Hash Brown Muffins
These muffins are a staple at our house. They are great for breakfast, brunch, and parties! Rotel sausage hash brown muffins are delicious on their own, but they really shine when paired with a few simple sides!
- Serve them alongside a quiche and fluffy biscuits for a complete breakfast spread, or add a side of fresh fruit like melon, berries, or sliced oranges to balance out the savory flavors.
- A light, mixed greens salad with a tangy vinaigrette also works well, especially if you’re serving the muffins for brunch.
- If you’re feeling a bit indulgent, pair them with a dollop of sour cream and salsa for a Tex-Mex twist.
