McGriddle Muffins Recipe

Sausage: Use your favorite breakfast sausage. You can use pre-cooked sausage crumbles or cook your own and crumble it. For a spicier muffin, use hot sausage.
Cheese: Cheddar cheese is a classic, but you can also use other cheeses like Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or Colby Jack.
Maple Syrup: Use real maple syrup for the best flavor. You can also add a bit more if you like a sweeter muffin.
Buttermilk Substitute: If you don’t have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to a measuring cup and then filling it with milk to reach 1/2 cup. Let it sit for 5 minutes to curdle slightly.
Vegetarian Option: Omit the sausage for a vegetarian muffin. You could add some chopped vegetables like bell peppers or onions.
Make Ahead: These muffins can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Freezing: These muffins freeze well. Wrap them individually in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer bag. They can be frozen for up to 2 months. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
Enjoy your homemade McGriddle Muffins! They’re a delicious and convenient way to enjoy those classic McGriddle flavors.
