This dish combines the warmth and texture of an English muffin with the savory flavors of breakfast meats and cheese, making it a comforting and satisfying meal. In this article, we will guide you through the simple steps to create a mouthwatering English muffin breakfast sandwich that will have you craving more every morning.
Ingredients
Before you start, gather the following ingredients:
– 2 English muffins
– 2 slices of cooked bacon or ham
– 2 slices of cheddar cheese
– 1 large egg
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Cooking spray or butter for the pan
– Optional: 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise or mustard
Instructions
1. Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure that your English muffins are perfectly toasted when you’re ready to assemble the sandwich.
2. In a non-stick skillet, cook the bacon or ham over medium heat until it is crispy. Once cooked, transfer the bacon or ham to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess fat.
3. In the same skillet, crack the egg and scramble it. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Once the egg is cooked to your liking, remove it from the heat and set it aside.
4. While the skillet is still warm, lightly coat it with cooking spray or butter. Place one English muffin cut-side down in the skillet and toast it for about 2-3 minutes, or until it is golden brown and crispy. Flip the muffin and repeat on the other side. Repeat this process with the second English muffin.
5. Once the English muffins are toasted, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise or mustard on one side of each muffin, if desired.
6. Place one slice of cheese on top of each muffin, and then add the cooked bacon or ham. Finally, top with the scrambled egg.
7. Place the muffins back in the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Remove the English muffin breakfast sandwiches from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Then, cut each sandwich in half and serve immediately.
