Cuisine: Breakfast
Serves: 6 sandwiches
Ingredients
- 6 English muffins
- 6 eggs
- 6 slices of cheese
- 6 slices of cooked bacon or sausage
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Butter for greasing
Instructions
- Gather all your ingredients: 6 English muffins, 6 eggs, 6 slices of cheese, 6 slices of cooked bacon or sausage, salt, pepper, and butter for greasing.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the sandwiches.
- While the oven is preheating, grease a large baking sheet with butter to prevent sticking.
- Crack the 6 eggs into a mixing bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste, and whisk until well combined.
- Pour the beaten eggs onto the greased baking sheet, spreading them out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and lightly golden.
- While the eggs are baking, split the English muffins in half and toast them lightly in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.
- Once the eggs are done baking, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Using a knife, cut the baked eggs into 6 equal squares, matching the size of the English muffin halves.
- Assemble the sandwiches by placing a square of baked egg on the bottom half of each toasted English muffin.
- Top each egg square with a slice of cheese and a slice of cooked bacon or sausage.
- Place the top half of the English muffin over the sandwich to complete it.
- Wrap each sandwich tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to keep them fresh for freezing.
- Label the wrapped sandwiches with the date and store them in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- When ready to eat, remove a sandwich from the freezer and unwrap it. Microwave it for about 1-2 minutes, or until heated through, or reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15 minutes.
Tips
- Use parchment paper or silicone baking mats when baking eggs to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- For maximum flavor, consider adding herbs like chives or dried parsley to your beaten eggs.
- Experiment with different cheese types - cheddar, pepper jack, or Swiss can add variety to your sandwiches.
- Allow the cooked eggs and muffins to cool completely before assembling to prevent condensation during freezing.
- When reheating, add a slightly damp paper towel over the sandwich to keep it moist and prevent the muffin from getting too dry.
- For best quality, consume frozen sandwiches within 2 months, though they can technically last up to 3 months.
- If you're meal prepping for multiple people, consider making variations to keep things interesting - some with bacon, some with sausage, etc.
