Sausage And Honey Cornbread Muffins

December 27, 2019 by Kelly 41 Comments

I am a night owl. Mornings are hard. My children take after me. This makes mornings even harder. Last night, I was up until 3 am. My mind would not shut off. My daughter was up until 2:30 am. She could not keep herself from her new ukulele. Sigh. To say we we racing against the clock this morning would be an understatement.

When I am pressed for time in the morning, I need a quick breakfast solution my kids can eat in the car. That would be my Sausage And Honey Cornbread Muffins. They are light, sweet with honey (Winnie the Pooh would love them!) and has enough protein to get them through to lunch without a rumbly in their tumbly.

Breakfast My Kids Can Eat In The Car

When I am pressed for time in the morning, I need a quick breakfast solution my kids can eat in the car. That would be my  Sausage And Honey Cornbread Muffins. They are light, sweet with honey (Winnie the Pooh would love them!) and has enough protein to get them through to lunch without a rumbly in their tumbly.

A Sticky Breakfast In My Car?!

I know what you are thinking…I would never let my kids near my car with a muffin dripping with honey. Agreed. Our car is fairly new and my husband’s pride and joy. He would kill me if he knew I let my kids eat in the car, let alone something sticky. So..you have two choices; leave off the honey (boo!) or put the muffin in a food container and give them a plastic fork.

Now my kids are teens, so I can trust them with food on the go more than when they were five. So..your choice. I won’t judge either way. I promise! These Sausage And Honey Cornbread Muffins are delicious either way!

Healthy And Just As Tasty

Since I am counting calories, I cannot afford to waste my precious 1,500 a day allotment. If I am going to splurge, I need to make it healthy one. I love to take a recipe that was once a calorie count sucker and make it healthier. With this Sausage And Honey Cornbread Muffins recipe, I made a few changes to my original and cut my calories by one-third.

This way, I get all of the flavor without breaking my calorie bank. Yay me!! And trust me, the kids have no clue they are eating something healthy. Yay me again! And these Sausage And Honey Cornbread Muffins freeze well, so you can make them on Sunday and they are good all week! Yay me yet again! After you drop the kids off, have one of these with one of my White Chocolate Caramel Lattes. Not as healthy, but still good! Enjoy!

    This is genius!! I would never have thought of it! I buy those frozen sausage wrapped in pancakes so I can’t wait to try this because not only does it sound great but a heck of a lot healthier.
    Thanks for the recipe!

    What a great solution. I think they would love it and you only cook once on Sunday. Yea you in many ways. My husband loves sausage and I don’t. I think I can make this and make half with sausage and half without. Thank you for the recipe.

    I like when recipes can be modified to be lower in calories. Especially ones that have carbs and protein so you get fuller and that feeling lasts longer.
