#467: Homemade Egg McMuffins


I love Egg McMuffins from McDonalds.  I have to restrain myself from stopping on the way to work because they are so unhealthy, and the healthier frozen versions you can buy from the grocery store are so expensive.  So when I came across this recipe, I was super intrigued and eager to try making these.  Besides, don't the cooked eggs look cute in the muffin pan?

Lightly oil a muffin tin and crack an egg in each tin.  Bake the muffin tin with eggs in a 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes.


Slice all the English muffins and toast them in the oven (or toaster oven) for 10 minutes.

Add an egg, cheese (grated cheddar or American cheese slices), turkey sausage (could use ham, bacon or Canadian bacon), and any veggies (if desired) that you want to each sandwich.

If you want to eat one right away, wrap in foil and bake in a 350 degree oven for 5-10 minutes to melt the cheese.

To eat later: Stick all your sandwiches on a baking sheet and stick it in the freezer. Leave them in the freezer until they are frozen, about an hour. Then wrap each sandwich individually in foil and store all the individually wrapped sandwiches in a freezer safe bag.

When reheating the sandwich, take out of the freezer and keep it wrapped in the foil.  Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes.
