Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a muffin tin by greasing or lining it.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg with buttermilk, maple syrup, and melted butter until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined.
  5. Spoon about a tablespoon of batter into each muffin cup, filling them about a third full.
  6. Place a cooked sausage patty on top of the batter in each cup, followed by a slice of cheese.
  7. Top with scrambled eggs, ensuring even distribution across all muffin cups.
  8. Cover the layers with the remaining muffin batter, filling each cup to the rim.
  9. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown; check for doneness with a skewer.
  10. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
