Sausage and Cheese Tater Tot Cups- a whole breakfast in a muffin cup. Crispy tater tots, ground breakfast sausage, eggs, and cheddar cheese. All your breakfast favorites combine to make a delicious breakfast the kids will love.

What You Need For This Recipe:

A regular-size muffin tin.
1 pound breakfast sausage- use hot if you want your Tater Tot Cups to be spicy.
7 large eggs
Milk
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (Pepper Jack or a Mexican cheese blend can be used instead)
72 frozen tater tots

How To Make Sausage and Cheese Tater Tot Cups:
You’ll start by browning the sausage, breaking it apart as it cooks. While the sausage cooks, place 3 tater tots in center of the muffin cups and place them in the oven for 10 minutes
Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper, and 1 cup of the shredded cheese. Divide the mixture between each of the cups. Sprinkle on the remaining cheese and top each with 3 tater tots. Pop back in the oven for 20 minutes. Once they cool just slightly, run a knife around the edge of each one and remove them from the muffin tin.

Recipe Tips:
Spray the muffin tray really, really well with cooking spray. Once you remove them from the oven, don’t let them cool too much before you remove them from the muffin tray or they will stick. Run the knife around the edge to loosen them.
Leftovers reheat well and will keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days or they can be frozen.
