Ingredients
Scale
- English muffins, split and toasted (recommend Thomas’)
- 6 large eggs, beaten (room temperature preferred)
- Cheese slices (cheddar, American, or favorite melty cheese)
- Breakfast meat (cooked bacon, sausage patties, or ham slices) – optional
- Unsalted butter, softened (for toasting muffins)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Cooking oil or spray (olive oil or avocado oil recommended)
- Optional extras: spinach or arugula, avocado slices for serving, hot sauce or ketchup for dipping
Instructions
- Split English muffins in half and toast them lightly until golden, about 3–4 minutes. Butter each half while still warm.
- Cook breakfast meat if using: bacon for 5–7 minutes, sausage patties for 6–8 minutes, or ham slices until browned and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
- In a mixing bowl, beat 6 large eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly oil it. Pour in eggs and scramble gently for 2–3 minutes until just set but still moist.
- Assemble sandwiches by layering scrambled eggs, cooked meat, and a cheese slice on the bottom half of each English muffin. Top with the muffin halves and press down gently.
- Wrap each sandwich tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper, then place inside a freezer-safe bag or container. Label with the date. Freeze for up to 2 months.
- To reheat, unwrap and microwave on high for 1–2 minutes if frozen, or 30 seconds if thawed. For a crispier finish, toast briefly after microwaving.
Notes
Toast English muffins to prevent sogginess after freezing. Use room temperature eggs for fluffier texture. Cook eggs gently over medium heat to avoid toughness. Wrap sandwiches tightly to prevent freezer burn. Reheat in microwave then toast for crispiness. Batch cooking saves time and is ideal for busy mornings.
