Make Ahead Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches

Freeze these sandwiches and reheat in one minute.  The ultimate breakfast sandwich

Course: Breakfast
Servings: 10 Sandwiches
Ingredients
  • 15 Large Eggs
  • 1/2 Cup 2% Milk
  • 2 teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 1/2 Pounds Breakfast Sausage see post for sausage ideas
  • 2 Whole Roma Toamotes diced
  • 1 1/2 Cups Cheddar Cheese grated
  • 2 Tablespoons Chives chopped
  • 10 Whole English Muffins separated
Instructions
  1. Toast English muffins in a 375 degree oven until golden, about 15 minutes.  Spreading butter on the muffins will help them turn a nice brown.  You can also broil them to make it faster, just keep an eye on the muffins because under the broiler they'll burn easily.

  2. Break eggs into a small bowl individually, then add eggs to a large bowl just after you crack each egg.  Reason being is to catch any stray egg shell that falls into your large bowl of eggs.  Lightly whip the eggs, add milk, salt and pepper and mix again.  You can also make the eggs in a frying pan using the "folding" method mentioned in the post above.

  3. Prepare a 9" X 12" pan with butter or line with parchment paper and butter both the paper as well as the pan.  Pour egg mixture into prepared pan.  Drop the the Roma tomatoes in, spreading them out evenly.  Then add the cheese and lastly the chives.  Cook in a 375 degree oven for 20-25 minutes until the egg is set and cooked through.

  4. Let eggs cool in the pan for 10 minutes.  If you used the parchment paper use the extra paper hanging over the pan as handles to lift the baked eggs, frittata, onto a cutting board.  If you have a 3-4" circular cookie cutter use it to cutt the frittata into 8 rounds to fit the English muffins.  You can use the extra baked eggs to fill the last 2 muffins.  If using regular bread, cut the eggs to fit.  You can even cut half moon shapes to fit croissants.

  5. Now for the assembly.  Place eggs onto the English muffin, then top with sausage and then the top of the muffin.  For added flavor you can pour a little honey and/or some hot sauce over the sausage.  But they taste pretty darn good just as they are.

Recipe Notes

Freezing.  You can freeze the Egg sandwiches once they are assembled on a parchment lined cookie sheet for 2 hours.  Once frozen, place breakfast sandwiches in a single layer in a labeled freezer bag for up to 3 months.  Reheat in a microwave on a paper towel, first remove the muffin top, heat for 1 minute, then place the muffin top back on the sandwich and continue to microwave for 30 seconds.

Preferred method:  Freeze the egg circles and sausage together and the freeze the English muffins in a separate baggie. When you are ready to reheat the sandwiches, place the egg circle and sausage on a microwave safe plate and heat for a minute and a half.  Toast the frozen English muffin and assemble the sandwich.  The bread doesn't get as hot or limp if you toast it instead of microwaving the muffin.  But the above fully assembled way is awfully good too.
