Instructions
Creating your very own Egg & Sausage McMuffins is straightforward and enjoyable. Follow these simple steps to make your breakfast masterpiece:
1. Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage patties until they are browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes on each side. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
2. Toast the Muffins: While the sausage is cooking, cut each English muffin in half and toast them until golden brown. You can use a toaster or place them on a baking tray under the broiler for a few minutes.
3. Cook the Eggs: In the same skillet used for sausages, crack an egg into the skillet. Use a ring mold for a perfect round shape or simply fry the egg as you normally would. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, sunny-side up or until the yolk is cooked to your liking.
4. Add Cheese: Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each egg in the final minute of cooking, allowing it to melt slightly.
5. Assemble the Sandwiches: Take a toasted muffin half and layer with a sausage patty, followed by the cheesy egg. Top with the other half of the muffin.
6. Serve: If desired, add hot sauce or ketchup for extra flavor before serving warm.
By following these steps, you’ll create delicious Egg & Sausage McMuffins that are sure to impress everyone at your breakfast table!
