Sausage and Egg Breakfast Sandwich Recipe

American · Main course · 15 min total

A hearty and satisfying breakfast sandwich featuring a savory sausage patty, a perfectly cooked egg, and melted cheese on a toasted English muffin.

Ingredients

• 1 English muffin, split and toasted
• 2 breakfast sausage links (or 1 patty), casings removed if using links
• 1 large egg
• 1 slice cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon butter
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Form the sausage into a thin patty slightly larger than the English muffin. Cook in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Crack the egg into the skillet and cook to your liking (sunny-side up or over-easy). Season with salt and pepper.
3. Place the cheese on the bottom half of the toasted English muffin. Top with the sausage patty, then the cooked egg. Cover with the top half of the muffin.
4. Serve immediately.

Tips

• For a runny yolk, cook the egg sunny-side up and do not flip.
• To make ahead, assemble the sandwich without the egg and reheat; cook the egg fresh.
• Add a slice of tomato or avocado for extra freshness.
