Ingredients
  

English muffins
  • 12 English muffins Split into muffin halves.

Equipment

Method
 

Cook sausage
  1. Cook breakfast sausage patties (or bacon slices) according to package directions, then set aside.
Bake the eggs
  1. Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray and crack one egg into each cup, breaking yolks if desired.
  2. Season eggs with salt and pepper and bake at 350°F for 12-15 minutes until set.
Toast the muffins
  1. Toast English muffins lightly so they hold up after freezing and reheating.
Assemble & freeze
  1. Assemble sandwiches by layering muffin bottom, egg, sausage patty, cheese slice, then muffin top.
  2. Wrap each sandwich individually in plastic wrap, then place in freezer bags.
  3. Freeze for up to 3 months; to reheat, unwrap and microwave for 1-2 minutes until heated through.

Notes

Pro tip: bake the eggs just until set (they should not look wet in the center) so the sandwiches reheat evenly without becoming rubbery. Store in the freezer up to 3 months; refrigerate leftovers up to 3 days. Freezing is yes—freeze fully assembled. Dietary swap: use turkey sausage patties or Canadian bacon for a lighter option while keeping the same bake-and-stack method.
