Ultimate Homemade Egg Sandwich

Now this is breakfast! Delicious and messy, one won't be enough!

Ingredients

SERVINGS: MAKES 1
  • Unsalted butter
  • 1 English muffin, split
  • 1  Breakfast Sausage patty
  • 2 slices American cheese
  • 2 large eggs, beaten to blend
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Handful of chopped fresh chives
  • Hot sauce and honey (for serving; optional)

Preparation

  • Generously butter each half of English muffin on both sides. Heat a large griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium. 

  • Toast muffin on griddle, cut side down, pressing slightly until golden brown, about 3 minutes.
 Flip and toast on other side, pressing slightly until golden brown on other side, about 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook Breakfast Sausage patty on griddle until browned on 1 side, about 2 minutes.

  • Flip and top with American cheese; cook until sausage is cooked through and cheese starts to melt, about 2 minutes. Turn off heat; keep muffin and sausage on warm griddle while you make the eggs. 

  • Heat a knob of butter in a small nonstick skillet (6" is ideal) over medium. Add eggs and season with salt and pepper.
  • Using a heatproof rubber spatula, cook, lifting edges and tilting skillet to let uncooked egg run underneath, until mostly set but still slightly runny on top, about 2 minutes.
  • Top with chives and fold eggs over to make a half moon; fold in half again. 

  • To serve, top bottom half of English muffin with egg, then sausage. Drizzle with hot sauce and honey, if desired. Close sandwich and stuff your face, cutlery not encouraged.
