This is one of my favourite festive breakfasts – and great for hungry teenagers! This is a ‘Cook Ahead’ recipe and some elements are cooked before freezing, but it will need further cooking once out of the fridge/freezer. Or just eat them as soon as they are made....win win!

Method

Based on 6 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Preheat the air fryer to 190°C or the oven to 170°C fan.

Step 2

Add the sausages to the air fryer or to the preheated oven on a tray. These will take 15 mins in the airfryer and 20 mins in the oven.

Step 3

Line a 20cm square air fryer /oven safe dish with baking parchment. Add the eggs and sage to a bowl, season with salt and pepper, then whisk with a fork. Pour into the lined dish and cook alongside the sausages for 13–15 minutes, slightly longer if cooking in the oven, flipping the sausages over halfway through. The egg should be set once cooked.

Step 4

Remove the sausages and eggs from the air fryer./oven Slice the sausages in half and cut the egg into 6 pieces.

Step 5

Layer up the bottom half of each muffin with a piece of egg, 2 sausage halves, a teaspoon of cranberry sauce, a handful of grated cheese and top with the muffin lid. Wrap each one in tin foil. Place back into the air fryer / oven for 10 minutes and serve.

Step 6

If making ahead, place the wrapped muffins into a large labelled freezer bag and freeze flat. Cook from frozen for 15-20 minutes in a preheated oven or air fryer until piping hot.
