Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat 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.
Lightly grease the skillet with butter or cooking spray as needed, then fry the eggs. Season the eggs 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 another 1-2 minutes. Remove the eggs from the pan and let cool slightly.
Assemble the sandwiches by placing the bottom half of each English muffin on a clean surface and then adding a slice of cheese on each muffin half. Add a cooked egg on top of the cheese. Top three with two halves of bacon and the other three with a sausage patty. Cover with the top half of the English muffin.
Notes
Toast the muffins first to keep them from getting soggy after assembly and freezing, and add a bit of crunch.
Warm ingredients can trap steam and lead to a soggy sandwich. Cooling helps keep the texture just right.
It’s easy to forget what’s in the freezer. A simple label helps keep your morning routine stress-free.
Store sandwiches in a single layer until frozen, then stack. It saves space and helps them keep their shape.
Serve: Serve as is or with a side of fresh fruit, hashbrowns, or a smoothie.Store: Wrap each assembled sandwich in parchment paper, place in a large Ziploc bag, and store in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat, unwrap the sandwich from the parchment paper, wrap it again in a paper towel, and microwave for 1 to 2 minutes or warm in the oven at 350 F for about 20 minutes.
