Description

A quick and delicious breakfast sandwich featuring crispy bacon, cheesy scrambled eggs, and a toasted English muffin. Perfect for a satisfying morning meal that’s easy to prepare in just 10 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale

Egg and Cheese

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Bacon

  • 2 slices bacon

Bread

  • 1 English muffin, toasted

Instructions

  1. Gather Ingredients: Collect all necessary ingredients including eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, bacon, and an English muffin.
  2. Toast Muffin: Toast the English muffin to your preferred crispness using a toaster or oven.
  3. Cook Bacon: Fry the bacon slices in a pan over medium heat until crispy. For larger quantities, bake bacon on a cookie sheet in the oven to minimize mess.
  4. Cook Eggs: Heat a frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook for 2 minutes. Flip the eggs carefully and cook for another 30 seconds for runny yolks; cook longer if desired.
  5. Melt Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar over the eggs and cover the pan with a lid. Let it sit for about 30 seconds or until the cheese melts.
  6. Assemble Sandwich: Place the cheesy eggs on the toasted English muffin base, add the crispy bacon on top, then cover with the other half of the muffin.
  7. Freeze Option: For make-ahead convenience, prepare extra sandwiches, allow them to cool on a baking sheet for 20 minutes, wrap each individually in foil, and freeze. Reheat by microwaving or toasting before serving.

Notes

  • The cooking time of eggs can be adjusted to preference for yolk consistency.
  • Baking bacon on a cookie sheet reduces mess when cooking larger batches.
  • Freezing sandwiches individually wrapped extends shelf life and allows quick reheating options.
  • Use cooking spray to prevent eggs from sticking to the pan.
