Begin by slicing the gluten-free English muffins in half and set aside.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Crack each egg into the skillet, keeping them separate. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, flipping halfway, until the yolk reaches your desired doneness. Season eggs with salt and black pepper. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, place the Canadian bacon slices and cook for about 2 minutes on each side until they are lightly browned and heated through. Remove and set aside.
Keeping the skillet over medium heat, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and lightly toast the inside of each half of the gluten-free English muffins until golden brown.
To assemble the Egg McMuffin, place one egg on the bottom half of each toasted muffin, followed by a slice of cooked Canadian bacon and a slice of cheddar cheese. Top with the other half of the muffin.
Transfer the assembled sandwiches back to the skillet to help melt the cheese, cover with a lid, and keep on low heat for 1-2 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Serve immediately and enjoy your gluten-free homemade Egg McMuffin!
