Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole English muffin
- 1 whole Large egg
- 1 slice Cheddar cheese slice
- 1 piece Canadian bacon or cooked breakfast sausage patty
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Split the English muffin in half and toast it until golden brown.
While the muffin is toasting, add the unsalted butter to the skillet.
Crack the egg into the skillet, ensuring the yolk remains intact. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Allow the egg to cook until the edges are set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the egg carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the yolk is firm.
At the same time, cook the Canadian bacon or breakfast sausage patty in the skillet until heated through.
Place the cheese slice over the cooked egg and let it melt slightly.
Assemble the McMuffin by placing the cooked egg with melted cheese on one half of the toasted English muffin, add the Canadian bacon or sausage patty, and top with the other half of the muffin.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious homemade McMuffin!
