Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Meat

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon or sausage patties until browned and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Toast the Muffins

    While the meat is cooking, slice the English muffins in half and toast them until golden brown.

  3. 3

    Cook the Eggs

    In the same skillet, add butter and crack the eggs into the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 2-3 minutes. If you prefer your yolks cooked, cover the skillet with a lid to help them cook through.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each toasted muffin, place a slice of cheese, followed by the cooked meat, and then the egg. Top with the other half of the muffin.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the sandwiches warm with your choice of side, such as fruit or hash browns.
