Sausage And Gravy Stuffin' Muffins Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: nonstick cooking spray, olive oil, breakfast sausage, McCormick® Rubbed Sage, red pepper flakes, kosher salt, Stuffin' Muffins Base, large eggs, McCormick® Turkey Gravy Mix, cold water

Provided by McCormick

Categories     Breakfast

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb breakfast sausage
½ teaspoon McCormick® Rubbed Sage
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
kosher salt, to taste
1 batch Stuffin' Muffins Base
2 large eggs
1 oz McCormick® Turkey Gravy Mix
1 cup cold water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Heat the olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Add the breakfast sausage, McCormick® Rubbed Sage, and red pepper flakes and cook, breaking up the meat into small pieces, until browned and cooked through, 6-8 minutes. Pour off any excess grease, then season with salt to taste.
  • Add the sausage to the stuffing base and stir to combine. Fold in the eggs until incorporated.
  • Spoon about ¼ cup (60 G) of the stuffing into each muffin cup, filling just above the rims. Press down gently with a spoon to release any air pockets.
  • Bake the stuffing cups for 30-35 minutes, or until cooked through and the tops are browned. Let rest in the muffin tin for 20 minutes, then run a knife around the edges of each cup to release.
  • While the stuffing muffins cool, add the McCormick® Gravy Mix to a small saucepan. Pour in the water, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Turn the heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until the gravy comes to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 minute. Remove the pot from the heat and let sit for 3-5 minutes, until slightly thickened.
  • Spoon the gravy over the sausage stuffin' muffins and serve warm.
  • Enjoy!

STUFFING MUFFINS



Stuffing Muffins image

Stuffing is a traditional Thanksgiving accompaniment to the turkey, but turning stuffing into muffins helps them hold their own on the holiday table -- with or without the bird. This recipe for stuffing muffins comes from reader Ilene Godofsky of Queens, who writes the Colorful Kitchen food blog. (Ms. Godofsky's vegan pumpkin double-chocolate brownies make the blog worth the visit!) We like this fresh take on stuffing, and the fact that you can serve these muffins on their own, or top with two of our other favorite side dishes -- mashed potatoes and gravy.

Provided by Tara Parker-Pope

Time 1h15m

Yield 12-18 Mini muffins (depending on pan)

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 cups bread cubes (about 1 loaf)
3 tablespoons vegan butter
1 medium onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ cups celery, diced
1 tablespoon ground flax seed
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon rosemary
salt and pepper to taste
2½ - 3 cups vegetable broth
oil to grease muffin tin

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spread bread cubes out on baking sheet in an even layer. Bake until toasted (about 10 to 15 minutes). Transfer bread to large bowl.
  • Heat the vegan butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the onion, garlic and celery. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are very soft, about 10 minutes. Add mixture to bowl with bread cubes.
  • Stir together the ground flax seed and 3 tablespoons warm water in a small bowl. Let sit for 5 minutes to bloom and then add to the bowl with the bread. Add thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper into bowl with bread. Add the vegetable broth, one cup at a time, and toss together. Allow to absorb for a minute before adding more broth. If the bread is too soggy, do not add the full amount.
  • Lightly grease the mini muffin tin. Spoon mixture into each spot, packing it down and filling it slightly above the top. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until edges are browned. Remove from oven and let sit until cool enough to handle.
