Title: Maple Sausage Egg Muffins
Post by: umpa on July 21, 2010, 10:11:52 AM
Maple Sausage Egg Muffins

INGREDIENTS
Raw Breakfast Sausage
2 Whole Eggs
4 Egg Whites
2 teaspoons Rubbed Sage
4 packages of  Stevia or splenda
1 teaspoon sugar free Maple Extract
1 teaspoon sugar free Vanilla Extract
12  one inch cubes  Sharp Cheddar Cheese
Sea Salt
Cracked Pepper
Paprika

Pre heat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 12 count muffin pan with non stick cooking spray. In a medium bowl whisk together 2 whole eggs, 4 egg whites, 2tsp rubbed sage, 2tsp Stevia Blend bake-able, 1tsp vanilla extract, 1tsp maple extract, some fresh cracked black pepper, a pinch of sea salt and set aside. Spoon out heaping tablespoons of raw breakfast sausage into the bottom of each muffin hole and press down to make a nice crust. Cut up cheese into twelve one inch cubes. Place a cube in the center of each muffin hole. Ladle the egg mixture equally into muffin holes and bake for 20 minutes. Dust with Paprika
 TIP –This muffin browns slightly and has a nice bread-like consistency. The eggs aren’t as dense because of the higher egg white count. The sweetness and extracts make it taste like a maple syrup sausage egg and cheese biscuit. They freeze great too!

These are sooo good.  We loved them. I took them to work and my co-workers were jealous.  They made the whole office smell good when I heated them in the microwave.

What can you use instead of splenda or stevia? Will not using splenda change the carb count?

If I don't have maple extract, can I just put in sugar free syrup (like for pancakes)?
Title: Re: Maple Sausage Egg Muffins
Post by: jen1975 on June 05, 2011, 05:08:45 PM
yes, you can Owensmath - I did that the first time I made them, still good!
Title: Re: Maple Sausage Egg Muffins
Post by: umpa on June 06, 2011, 09:36:34 AM

I just made these. Delicious! Thanks umpa! It made twelve nice size muffins. I can't say they "look" pretty, but they taste terrific! I put alittle log cabin sugar-free syrup over the top of one before I ate it. Yum! You said to put two teapoons of sage. I can't even remember the last time I used this spice in anything. It seemed like alot to me especially since the egg mixture was "really" green after the first teaspoon, so I just left it at that. Also, you didn't say how long to bake them for so I wasn't sure. I think I left them in for 15 or maybe 20 minutes. Is this about right?
Title: Re: Maple Sausage Egg Muffins
Post by: umpa on July 04, 2011, 10:44:32 AM
Yes until firm.Spices are an individual thing.Always start with less,you can always add more after you taste it ;)Do you have the Bakery book gpod97? You can get it free with 50 posts :)
Title: Re: Maple Sausage Egg Muffins
Post by: gpod97 on July 07, 2011, 07:22:10 PM
No not yet umpa but will be working towards it with my posts. I really don't have much time now to experiment but will after the end of this month.  ;D I'm looking forward to making some good stuff! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

yum Umpa! I know without a doubt the kiddos will just Love this!! Thanks!!

What would be the carb count for either each of these or the whole 24??
Title: Re: Maple Sausage Egg Muffins
Post by: Doug Varrieur on September 01, 2011, 07:49:56 AM
Assuming you're using zero carb breakfast sausage the only carbs are in the eggs, 1 carb for each whole egg 1/2 for each egg white. the total carb count for this recipe is 4  ;) Welcome to the forum katiesmemaw I look forward to your posts  8)

Hey there to both of you.  Thank you so much Doug and Sherri for you response on the count for these delicious sounding muffins.  Doug, know you don't remember us but we are Carl and Betty.  Carl got your book 2 or 3 years ago.  We are full-time Motorhomers who are in this area for the summer months.  I just downloaded this cookbook and I'm anxious to "get to bakin".  Thanks and I'll be reading everything on the forum.

I am sorry.We met a man named Carl in Clearwater who doug and I were just talking about.He was gravely ill and needed to lose about 250 pounds.He got started right away but we haven't heard from him.So where did you meet us? :)
Title: Re: Maple Sausage Egg Muffins
Post by: katiesmemaw on September 05, 2011, 03:07:48 PM
Carl and I are in the Maggie Valley area.  We usually spend the summer months in this area.  A friend of mine here in Waynesville mentioned your first Fat to Skinny book and Carl went online and ordered it several years ago.  We have never personally met but I look forward to that pleasure some day.  Hope you are having a wonderful Labor Day!!

Post by: BarbaraBuck on October 24, 2011, 01:45:17 PM
Can't wait to try this recipe. Sound very good..although i think i might leave out the sweetener since i don't have the maple extract and will most likely use the SF maple syrup.
Title: Re: Maple Sausage Egg Muffins
Post by: umpa on October 25, 2011, 09:54:41 AM
That will work barbara! I use sugarfree maple syrup as a brown sugar replacement too.Exact same taste. ;)
