Description

A quick and satisfying breakfast sandwich featuring a perfectly cooked egg, savory ham, and melty cheese, all tucked into a toasted English muffin or bagel.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 egg
  • 12 slices of ham (deli or leftover baked ham)
  • 1 slice of cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or American)
  • 1 English muffin or bagel, split
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Split the English muffin or bagel and toast it in a skillet with butter until golden brown.
  2. In the same skillet, cook the egg to your liking. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Place the cheese slice over the warm egg so it melts.
  4. Warm the ham slice in the skillet briefly until heated through.
  5. Assemble the sandwich by layering ham, cheesy egg, and any extras between the toasted bread halves. Press gently to finish.

Notes

  • Use a ring mold to keep your egg perfectly round.
  • Melt cheese directly on the egg for better gooeyness.
  • Toast bread in butter for added flavor and crunch.
  • Let ingredients cool slightly before assembling to avoid sogginess.
