Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Gluten-free English muffin
- 2 slices Bacon
- 1 large Egg
- 1 slice Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray it lightly with cooking spray.
Add the bacon slices to the skillet and cook them until crispy, about 4-5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess grease.
While the bacon is cooking, split the gluten-free English muffin in half and lightly toast it in a toaster or toaster oven until golden brown.
In the same skillet, add butter and allow it to melt completely. Crack the egg into the skillet, keeping the yolk intact, and season with salt and pepper.
Cook the egg to your preferred level. For a sunny-side-up egg, cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the whites are set, about 2-3 minutes.
Place the cheese slice onto one half of the toasted muffin and use the residual heat to help it begin melting.
Once the egg is ready, carefully place it over the cheese-topped muffin half.
Place the crispy bacon over the egg, and cover with the remaining muffin half.
Serve immediately, slicing in half if desired, and enjoy your gluten-free bacon egg and cheese English muffin.
