Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Whole wheat English muffin
- 2 pieces Eggs
- 2 slices Canadian bacon
- 2 pieces Cheddar cheese slice
- 2 teaspoons Butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Slice the whole wheat English muffins in half and lightly toast them in a toaster until golden brown. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Crack an egg into the skillet, keeping the yolk intact. Optionally, use an egg ring to maintain a circular shape.
Season the egg with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, then carefully flip and cook for another minute for a soft yolk or longer for a firmer yolk. Repeat for the second egg.
In the same skillet, sear the Canadian bacon slices for 1-2 minutes per side until they are lightly browned and heated through.
Spread 1 teaspoon of butter on each English muffin half.
Assemble the sandwich: Place a slice of Canadian bacon on the bottom half of each English muffin, followed by the cooked egg and a slice of cheddar cheese. Top with the remaining muffin halves.
Optional: Wrap the sandwiches in foil and place them back in the skillet over low heat for 1-2 minutes to gently melt the cheese.
Serve warm and enjoy your homemade Whole Wheat Egg McMuffin!
