Step 1

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Begin by cooking sausage, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through. Drain on a paper towel lined plate. Grease muffin tins liberally with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.

Step 2

In a large bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar (if not using maple syrup). Stir in cooked sausage and cheese.

Step 3

In a small bowl whisk together milk, egg, and maple syrup (if using). Pour into flour mixture then add the melted butter. Stir to combine until flour is incorporated.

Step 4

Spoon into muffin tins, filling to the top of each tin. Sprinkle additional cheese on top, if desired.

Step 5

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes clean and tops are golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan before transferring to a cooling rack. Serve warm.
