Ingredients
- 6 English muffins
- ¼ cup unsalted butter ½ stick, divided (plus more for muffins)
- 6 lices Canadian bacon
- 6 large eggs
- kosher salt to taste
- ground black pepper to taste
- ½ cup water divided
- 6 lices American cheese
Instructions
- Toast the English muffins in the oven or a toaster. Spread each with butter if desired.
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet set over medium heat. Sear the slices of Canadian bacon slices for about 1-2 minutes on each side; set aside.
- In the center of a separate skillet set over medium heat, place 3 mason jar lid or metal/silicone ring molds. Melt ½ tablespoon of butter in each cavity. While holding the rings securely against the skillet, crack 1 egg into them and gently break the yolks with a fork. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour ¼ cup of water into the pan around the ring, cover the pan, and cook for about 1 minute until the eggs are cooked through. Carefully remove the eggs from the rings and set them aside on a plate. Empty the water from the skillet, wipe it dry, then repeat the process with the remaining 3 eggs.
- Place a slice of cheese on the bottom half of each English muffin. Top each with an egg round, then a slice of Canadian bacon, followed by the other half of the muffin.
Notes
- Try breakfast sausage, turkey sausage, deli turkey or ham, bacon, or turkey bacon instead of Canadian bacon.
- Storage: Store egg McMuffins wrapped in foil or parchment paper in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Try a bagel, roll, or croissant instead of an English muffin.
- Try breakfast sausage, turkey sausage, deli turkey or ham, bacon, or turkey bacon instead of Canadian bacon.
- Try mozzarella, Monterey Jack, cheddar, or pepper Jack cheese instead of American.
- Add chopped tomatoes, spinach, basil, or steamed veggies. Add the veggies to the jar lid with the egg before you cook it.
- You can leave the egg whole or scramble it.
- Use Canadian bacon that is circular in shape. It’s already cooked, so just needs to be crisped up a little.
- It’s easy to adapt these egg McMuffins to suit your tastes; add more cheese, skip the bacon it’s up to you!
