📝 Instructions

9 steps
1

Slice your English muffin or hamburger bun in half and toast it lightly in a toaster or on a skillet over medium heat until golden brown. Set aside.

2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and apply non-stick cooking spray or a teaspoon of butter.

3

Crack the egg into a small bowl and whisk lightly with a fork. Add salt and pepper to season.

4

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan slightly to spread it evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges set.

5

Gently flip the egg using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fully cooked through. Fold the egg into a square to fit the bun and set aside.

6

In the same skillet, heat the cooked bacon, ham, or sausage patty for 1-2 minutes until warm.

7

Place the bottom half of the toasted bun on a plate. Layer it with the folded egg, heated meat, and a slice of cheese.

8

Cover the sandwich with the top half of the bun. If desired, wrap it in foil to allow the cheese to melt, or serve immediately.

Enjoy your delicious breakfast on a bun!
