Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 12 large eggs
- 1/3 cup whole milk
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Toppings
- 6 oz cheese, grated
Serving
- English muffins
- Bacon, Canadian bacon, or ham
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a half sheet pan (13x18 inches) with butter or nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together 12 large eggs and 1/3 cup whole milk until smooth. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Bake Eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the prepared sheet pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes until eggs are set but still slightly moist to avoid overcooking.
- Add Cheese: Remove the pan from the oven and evenly sprinkle 6 oz grated cheese on top of the eggs. Return to the oven for about 3 minutes until the cheese has melted.
- Cool and Slice: Lightly sprinkle the eggs with salt once more, let them cool for a few minutes, then slice into 12 even squares.
- Freeze Option: If you want to store for later, wrap each egg square in plastic wrap and freeze. To reheat, remove plastic wrap and microwave for 1 minute.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Toast English muffins and layer each with one egg square and bacon, Canadian bacon, or ham. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious breakfast sandwiches!
Notes
- For a dairy-free option, substitute cheese with a plant-based alternative or omit entirely.
- You can use any type of cheese you prefer such as cheddar, mozzarella, or Swiss for different flavors.
- To add vegetables, consider mixing diced bell peppers or spinach into the egg mixture before baking.
- Cooking time may vary slightly depending on your oven, so monitor the eggs closely to prevent overcooking.
- If freezing, wrap sandwiches assembled or just the egg squares, depending on convenience and preference.
- Bacon or ham can be cooked in advance or quickly pan-fried while eggs bake.
