How to Make and Freeze English Muffin Breakfast Sandwiches
Are you looking for a quick and easy way to enjoy a delicious breakfast? Look no further! English muffin breakfast sandwiches are the perfect solution. Not only are they easy to make, but you can also freeze them for a convenient breakfast option any time you need. In this article, we will guide you through the process of making and freezing these delightful sandwiches.
Ingredients
Before we dive into the instructions, let’s take a look at the ingredients you’ll need:
– 4 English muffins
– 4 slices of cooked bacon
– 4 slices of cheese (such as cheddar or Swiss)
– 4 eggs
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Butter or cooking spray
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Place the English muffins on the baking sheet and toast them for about 5-7 minutes, or until they reach your desired level of crispiness. Remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
3. While the muffins are cooling, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until it’s crispy. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
4. In a separate skillet, crack the eggs and scramble them to your liking. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Once the muffins are cool enough to handle, spread a thin layer of butter or cooking spray on the inside of each muffin half.
6. Place a slice of cheese on top of each muffin half, followed by a slice of bacon and a scrambled egg.
7. Place the muffin tops on top of the fillings and press down gently to secure the sandwich.
8. Place the sandwiches on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the muffins are heated through.
9. Remove the sandwiches from the oven and let them cool slightly before cutting them in half.
Freezing Instructions
Now that you have your delicious english muffin breakfast sandwiches, it’s time to freeze them for future enjoyment:
1. Allow the sandwiches to cool completely before placing them in airtight containers or freezer bags.
2. Label the containers or bags with the date and contents.
3. Place the sandwiches in the freezer and they can be stored for up to three months.
4. When you’re ready to enjoy a sandwich, simply thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or microwave it for 30-60 seconds.
