Step-by-Step Instructions for McGriddle Muffins

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a muffin tin thoroughly.
In a skillet over medium heat, add your breakfast sausage and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Using the same skillet, lower the heat slightly and add your scrambled eggs. Cook until fully set, about 3-4 minutes.
In a mixing bowl, blend together the pancake mix, water, maple syrup, salt, and pepper until just combined.
Spoon the muffin batter into each cup of the tin, filling them with about 1/4 cup of the mixture.
Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 16-18 minutes until golden.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5-6 minutes before serving warm.
