Ingredients
Scale
Sausage Mixture
- 1 lb breakfast sausage
- 2 (5-oz) jars Kraft Old English Cheese spread
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp cayenne powder (or to taste)
Base
- 8 English muffins, split
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400ºF (204ºC) to prepare for baking the assembled muffins.
- Cook Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, crumbling it as it cooks, until it is no longer pink. Drain off excess fat to keep the mixture light.
- Mix Cheese Spread and Seasonings: Reduce heat to medium-low and add the Old English Cheese spread, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper to the cooked sausage. Stir continuously until the cheese spread has fully melted and the mixture is well combined.
- Assemble Muffins: Arrange the split English muffin halves on a cookie sheet. Generously top each half with the warm sausage and cheese mixture.
- Bake: Place the assembled muffins in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and bubbly.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of cayenne pepper according to your preferred spice level.
- Drain sausage fat carefully to reduce greasiness.
- For a crispier muffin base, toast the English muffins lightly before topping.
- Leftover muffins can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or microwave.
