Ingredients
- 2 English muffins
- 2 Breakfast sausage patties
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 Cheddar cheese slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the vegetable oil to the skillet. Once the oil is hot, place the sausage patties in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are browned and thoroughly cooked. Remove the sausage patties from the skillet and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
Step 3
While the sausage is cooking, split the English muffins and toast them until they are golden brown.
Step 4
In a separate medium-sized skillet, add 1 tablespoon of butter and melt over medium-low heat. Crack both eggs into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolks. Season the eggs with salt and black pepper.
Step 5
Cook the eggs for about 3-4 minutes or until the whites are fully set and the yolks are still slightly runny. If you prefer a fully cooked yolk, flip the eggs and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Step 6
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each cooked sausage patty to let it melt slightly.
Step 7
Butter the toasted English muffins lightly with the remaining tablespoon of butter.
Step 8
To assemble the sandwich, place one sausage patty with melted cheese on the bottom half of each English muffin. Top with a fried egg.
Step 9
Cover with the top half of the English muffin and serve immediately, while hot.
