Ingredients

  • 8 oz ground pork
  • 1 tsp ground sage
  • ½ tsp dried savory or marjoram
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup diced mushroom
  • ½ cup diced yellow onion
  • 12 eggs
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the ground pork, sage, savory, pepper, nutmeg, and salt. Mix thoroughly. Optional: this mixture may be covered and refrigerated for 1 hour or overnight to allow flavors to "marry".
  • Add oil to a large skillet and cook the ground pork mixture over medium-high. Crumble it with a spatula or spoon while cooking until browned, about 4–5 minutes.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a paper-towel-lined plate. Leave the drippings in the pan.
  • Reduce heat to medium, then add mushrooms and onions. Stirring occasionally, cook until softened and the onions are translucent, about 6–8 minutes.
  • Transfer the vegetable mixture to the plate with the sausage. Let cool for 5 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, mix the eggs, sour cream, cheese, salt, and pepper.
  • Divide the pork and vegetables evenly into greased muffin cups. Pour the egg mixture over top, then bake for 25-30 minutes until the egg mixture reaches 160°F.
  • Remove from the oven, then transfer each bite to a rack or plate to cool.
