Skip the drive thru and save yourself some money by making these homemade English Muffin Breakfast Sandwiches! This McDonald's Egg McMuffin copycat tastes so much better than the original!
These can be prepared for the freezer in about 30 minutes! You'll have enough for six sandwiches but this can easily be doubled or tripled depending on how many you need.
These English muffin sandwiches are a hit with kids too! They're easy enough to customize if you have a picky eater or if you feel like switching up the flavors in your sandwich.

Recipe tips and substitution ideas:
- For a healthier option, use whole wheat English muffins and turkey bacon or turkey sausage.
- You can also add vegetables like spinach, onion, mushrooms or bell peppers to the eggs for added nutrition and flavor. We add different spices and herbs too!
- These can be re-heated in an oven or air fryer instead of microwave.
- If you don't want to prepare these for freezing, serve them when you make them! They're of course, best when fresh!

Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 6 English muffins, cut in half
- 3 slices of bacon, cut in half
- 3 sausage patties
- 6 large eggs
- 6 slices of cheese
- salt and black pepper, to taste
- butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Place English muffin halves on a baking sheet. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Set aside.
- In the same skillet, cook the sausage patties until fully cooked. Remove and drain on paper towels. Set aside.
- Heat a small non-stick pan with 4 egg rings over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Crack an egg into each ring. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook until the whites are set and the yolk is cooked to your preference, about 3-4 minutes. If you prefer firmer yolks, flip the eggs and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool slightly.
- Place the bottom half of each toasted English muffin on a clean surface. Place a slice of cheese on each muffin half.
- For 3 sandwiches, top with a cooked egg and two halves of bacon. For the other 3 sandwiches, top with a cooked egg and a sausage patty. Cover with the top half of the English muffin.
- Wrap and freeze:
- Wrap each assembled sandwich in parchment paper.
- Place the wrapped sandwiches in a large Ziploc bag or airtight container.
- Store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- To reheat:
- To reheat, unwrap the sandwich from the parchment paper and wrap it in a paper towel.
- Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until heated through.
