1. **Preheat and Prepare**: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners for easy removal.
2. **Mix Dry Ingredients**: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.
3. **Add Cheese and Sausage**: Gently fold in the shredded cheese, crumbled sausage, and chopped green onions into the dry ingredients until evenly distributed.
4. **Combine Wet Ingredients**: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and lightly beaten egg until smooth.
5. **Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures**: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter will be slightly lumpy, which is perfectly fine.
6. **Fill Muffin Cups**: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
7. **Bake**: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. **Cool and Serve**: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
