Ingredients

Baked Eggs

8 large eggs
½ cup whole milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt or more to taste

Pork Sausage

1 ½ pounds ground pork
1 ½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
1 ½ teaspoon rosemary finely chopped or use dry
1 ½ teaspoon sage finely chopped or use dry

Breakfast Sandwiches

6 english muffins
6 slices cheddar cheese or your favorite cheese

Instructions

Make the baked eggs

Preheat the oven to 350 F and grease an 8×8 inch pan with oil spray.
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk and kosher salt. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared greased pan and bake for 13-15 minutes. Let the eggs cool for 5 minutes then using a knife and cut into 6 squares or use a cookie cutter and cut into circles.

Make the sausage patties

Combine pork and all the seasonings and herbs in a medium bowl. Mix very well.
Divide meat into 6 patties, about ½" thick. Make sure they are slightly larger than an English muffin since it will shrink while cooking.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add the sausage patties and cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until lightly browned. Flip and coo for an additional 3-4 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Assemble the breakfast sandwiches

Divide the English muffins into two halves.
Add the cheese on one half of the English muffin, then the eggs and finish with the sausage.
Top with the other half of the English muffin, wrap in parchment paper and then add to a ziplock bag and place in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze.

Notes

Sausage options:

For a sweet sausage, add 1 to 2 teaspoons of brown sugar.
For a spicy sausage, add ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper or chili flakes.
Ground turkey can be substituted for some or all of the ground pork.
Other meat options: Use cooked bacon or Canadian bacon instead of sausage patties or use store bought sausage patties.

Oven heating from fridge: Set the oven to 425 F and add the sandwiches directly on the rack still wrapped in parchment paper. Then bake for 8-10 minutes if the oven is already hot, but if not, I will just put it in while it’s preheating and leave it in a little longer – about 10-15 minutes.

Air fryer heating from fridge: Set it to 400 F and heat the sandwich in the parchment paper for 3-4 minutes, open to crisp up for an additional minute or two.

Microwave reheating from fridge: Keep the sandwich in the parchment paper and cook for 2 minutes.

Reheating From Frozen: You can either let it thaw in the fridge overnight and follow the reheating instructions above, or leave it in the oven a little longer (about 25-30 mins).
