Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) if baking right away. Alternatively, you can prepare and refrigerate this recipe ahead of time, then bake it when needed.
Slice the English muffins in half horizontally to create 8 halves, and place them cut side up on a large baking sheet. Set aside.
Peel and finely chop the hard-boiled eggs, and place them in a medium mixing bowl.
To the chopped eggs, add the mayonnaise, shredded Cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Spread a generous amount of the egg mixture evenly onto each English muffin half.
If making ahead, cover the prepared muffins with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 12 hours.
When ready to bake, remove the muffins from the refrigerator and sprinkle the tops with paprika, if desired.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the muffins are lightly golden on the edges.
Serve warm and enjoy!
