Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece English muffin (or bagel, croissant, or sandwich roll)
- 1 piece Large egg
- 1 slice Cheese slice (cheddar, Swiss, or American)
- 2 slices or 1 patty Cooked bacon, sausage patty, or deli ham
- 1 teaspoon Butter (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Cooking spray or oil
Instructions
Cut the English muffin in half and lightly toast it in a toaster or toaster oven until golden brown.
Spray a non-stick skillet with cooking spray or add 1 teaspoon of oil, and heat over medium heat.
Crack the egg into the skillet and cook until the whites are set (about 2-3 minutes). For a firmer yolk, flip the egg and cook on the other side for 1 minute. Season the egg with salt and black pepper.
If using bacon, sausage, or ham, warm it in the skillet for 1-2 minutes to heat through.
Spread butter on the toasted English muffin halves, if desired.
Assemble the sandwich: Place the cooked egg on the bottom half of the toasted English muffin. Add the cheese slice on top of the egg, followed by the warmed bacon, sausage, or ham.
Place the top half of the English muffin over the fillings to complete the sandwich.
Wrap the sandwich in foil or parchment paper if eating on the go, or serve immediately while warm.
