Breakfast Sandwich
Description
This breakfast sandwich uses eight large eggs beaten with milk, salt, and pepper then baked in a greased 9x13-inch pan until just set. The baked egg slab is sliced into six rectangular portions, each folded to fit the sandwich. Sausage patties, or alternately ham or bacon, are cooked separately and assembled on English muffins split and toasted under a broiler with cheddar cheese melted on six muffin halves.
The sandwiches are assembled with the folded egg slices placed on the non-cheese muffin halves topped with sausage and then the cheesy muffin halves. Baking eggs rather than scrambling in a pan creates uniform squares, speeding assembly for multiple sandwiches. The broiled cheese melts quickly for a crisp toasted top, enhancing texture combination.
This recipe is convenient for batch making breakfasts, including freezing instructions. Sandwiches may be wrapped and frozen up to four months, then reheated gently in a microwave wrapped with a damp paper towel to preserve moisture.
