Method
Egg mixture
- 1
Whisk eggs
Crack the eggs into a small bowl. Add the milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Whisk briskly until combined and slightly frothy. This aerates the eggs and yields a fluffier texture.

Cook eggs
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add 1 teaspoon butter and let it melt, coating the pan. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for 20–30 seconds until the edges begin to set, then gently push the set edges toward the center with a spatula, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to run out. Continue folding gently until mostly set but still moist, about 1–2 minutes total. Remove from heat a little before fully firm — residual heat will finish cooking. Taste and adjust with remaining salt and pepper if needed.

Layer sandwich
Place the toasted bottom half of the muffin on a plate. Put the cheese slice on the warm toast so it begins to soften. Add any optional hot meat (sausage patty or ham) on top of the cheese if using. Fold or place the cooked eggs over the cheese/meat. Add optional tomato slices or spinach if desired. Top with the muffin cap and press lightly to meld. If you prefer fully melted cheese, return the assembled sandwich to the warm skillet for 20–30 seconds, covered, to steam and melt the cheese.
