Ingredients
  

English muffins
  • 12 English muffins split
Eggs
  • 12 eggs
Breakfast sausage
  • 12 breakfast sausage patties (or bacon slices)
Cheese
  • 12 American or cheddar cheese slices
Seasoning
  • 1 Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking fats & spray
  • 1 tbsp Butter for cooking eggs
  • 1 Cooking spray

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Cook the sausage and eggs
  1. Cook the breakfast sausage patties according to package directions and set aside, using a skillet until fully cooked and browned. Transfer to a plate so they’re ready to assemble.
  2. Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray and crack one egg into each cup, breaking yolks if desired. Make sure the yolks sit flat for even baking.
  3. Season the eggs with salt and pepper to taste. Add seasoning evenly so every sandwich has consistent flavor.
  4. Bake at 350°F for 12-15 minutes until the eggs are set in the cups. Look for firm centers with no wet wobble when the tin is gently tapped.
Toast and assemble
  1. Toast the English muffins lightly until warmed and lightly browned. Keep them flexible so they stack cleanly.
  2. Assemble sandwiches with muffin bottom, baked egg, sausage patty, cheese slice, and muffin top. Press lightly so the cheese starts melting from the hot egg.
Wrap and freeze (and reheat)
  1. Wrap each sandwich individually in plastic wrap, keeping the sandwich fully covered. Seal snugly to prevent freezer burn.
  2. Place the wrapped sandwiches in freezer bags and freeze for up to 3 months. Store them flat so they freeze in compact stacks.
  3. To reheat, unwrap and microwave for 1-2 minutes until heated through. Stop once the center is hot and the cheese looks melted again.

Notes

Pro tip: for cleaner stacking and faster melting, keep the sausage warm and assemble immediately after the eggs come out of the oven. Store wrapped sandwiches in the freezer up to 3 months; thawing isn’t required for microwave reheating. For a dietary swap, use turkey sausage patties (or Canadian bacon) instead of pork sausage.
