I am always looking for easy delicious breakfast recipes to try. This recipe is a mixture of mini pancake bites and egg muffin cups. I tried to have something with more protein and nutrients than just a muffin which my kids are not big fans of. They are super delicious with basic ingredients that you may already have.
Additions/Substitutions
This recipe is a very versatile one and can be changed up many ways. I used breakfast sausage; this can be used with bacon or sausage. I used cheddar cheese but whatever you have/like is fine. I also used whole wheat flour, but all purpose is fine as well. I added vanilla protein powder instead of vanilla extract. This added some flavor and protein to them. If you have unflavored protein powder that will work also. I used stevia brown sugar, you can use regular can sugar, honey or your sweetener of choice.
