Sausage Pizza Egg Cups

Sausage Pizza Egg Cups- only 6 ingredients needed to make this quick and easy breakfast on the go. Great for a low carb, keto diet.

Full of Italian sausage, a little Italian seasoning, mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese plus a dab of pizza sauce, there’s so much flavor in each bite.

They are so simple to make and can easily be reheated later in the week. This is a really family-friendly recipe that kids will love.

First you’ll brown 1/2 pound of Italian sausage. You could use breakfast sausage instead but the Italian sausage really makes the egg cups taste like pizza.

Note: The sausage can be browned a day in advance to save time in the morning.

The sausage gets divided between 6 muffin cups. Be sure to spray the muffin tin really well with cooking spray so your egg cups don’t stick. If you have silicone liners, use them to be safe.

The sausage should come most of the way up the muffin cups. Next gently crack an egg in each one. Bake them in the oven for 12 to 14 minutes.

Remove them from the oven and place a spoonful of pizza sauce on each one and top with both cheeses and the Italian seasoning. Return to the oven for 2 to 3 minutes.

Right after you remove them form the oven, run a knife around the edge of each one to loosen it (if you didn’t use silicone liners).

Egg Cups with the flavor of pizza make such a great low carb breakfast. They are sure to be a family favorite.
