Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Coat a 12-cup muffin tin with oil and set aside.

- Add the baguette cubes to the egg mixture. Stir well and let it sit for 10 minutes.
- Cut sausage into ½ inch pieces, brown them in a large pan over medium hear. Once it’s cooked through, remove to a plate and pat it down with paper towel to get rid of oil.

- Scoop 1 cup of the mixture into each of the prepared muffin cups.
- Pour egg mixture over top of each cup, making sure that they don’t overflow.
- Bake for 20-35 minutes.
- Drizzle with the Three-Berry Compote and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
- Add strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and optional sugar to a small saucepan.
- Add the lemon zest and vanilla extract and let it sit over low heat for a couple of minutes until the fruit breaks down as much as you like.
