Ingredients
- 2 English muffins or sandwich buns, split
- 2 large eggs
- 2 slices cheddar cheese or American cheese
- 2 slices cooked bacon ham, or sausage patties
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional: sliced avocado tomato, or spinach
Instructions
Toast the bread:
- Toast the English muffins or buns until golden and crisp.
Cook the eggs:
- Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Crack eggs into the pan and cook to your preference (fried, scrambled, or over-easy).
- Season with salt and pepper.
Warm the meat:
- Heat cooked bacon, ham, or sausage in the same skillet until warm.
Assemble the sandwich:
- Place cheese on the bottom half of each muffin.
- Add the hot egg on top so the cheese melts slightly.
- Layer with meat and any optional toppings.
- Close with the top half of the muffin.
Serve:
- Serve warm, or wrap in foil for an on-the-go breakfast.
Notes
- Make ahead: Wrap sandwiches in foil and refrigerate or freeze. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
- Healthier option: Use whole wheat muffins and turkey bacon.
- Extra flavor: Add a spread like mayonnaise, hot sauce, or pesto.
- Vegetarian option: Skip the meat and add sautéed veggies or a plant-based patty.
