- Cook Time: 45 minutes
- Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
- Yield: 20 sandwiches 1x
- Category: Breakfast
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 20 English muffin halves (whole wheat or white)
- 20 large eggs (room temperature)
- 20 cheese slices (cheddar, American, mozzarella, or pepper jack)
- 20 breakfast sausage patties (pre-made or homemade, about 3 inches diameter)
- Butter or oil (for cooking, such as unsalted butter, canola oil, or avocado oil)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Optional add-ins: spinach leaves, sliced tomatoes, avocado
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter or oil. Form ground sausage into 20 small patties, about 3 inches in diameter. Cook each side for 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
- Crack one egg into each cup of a muffin tin. Season with salt and pepper. Bake for 12-15 minutes until eggs are set but still moist. Let cool slightly.
- Split and lightly toast English muffins in a toaster or under the broiler for 1-2 minutes until golden.
- Assemble sandwiches by placing one cooked egg round on the bottom half of each muffin, then add a sausage patty and a slice of cheese. Top with the muffin half.
- Wrap each sandwich tightly in aluminum foil or parchment paper to keep shape and prevent freezer burn.
- Place wrapped sandwiches on a baking sheet in a single layer and freeze for 1-2 hours until firm. Transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container for long-term storage.
- To reheat, unwrap and microwave on high for 1-2 minutes or bake in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 15-20 minutes until heated through. Add extra time if reheating from frozen.
Notes
[‘Baking eggs in a muffin tin creates perfect round shapes that fit English muffins.’, ‘Wrap sandwiches individually before freezing to prevent sticking and freezer burn.’, ‘Pre-toast English muffins to avoid soggy bread when reheating.’, ‘Press sausage patties firmly to hold shape during cooking and freezing.’, ‘Use cheese slices instead of shredded cheese for better melting and sandwich integrity.’, ‘For fluffier eggs, whisk with a splash of milk before baking (optional).’, ‘Reheat in oven or toaster oven for crispier muffins; microwave is faster but may soften bread.’]
