Ingredients

• 1 English muffin
• 1 Large egg
• 1 Cheddar cheese slice
• 1 teaspoon Butter
• 0.125 teaspoon Salt
• 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 spritz Cooking spray
• 1 Optional cooked ham, bacon, or sausage patty

Directions

Step 1

Toast the English muffin until golden brown and set aside.

Step 2

Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with a spritz of cooking spray.

Step 3

Crack the egg into the skillet and break the yolk with a fork if you prefer a fully cooked egg. Season the egg with salt and black pepper.

Step 4

Cook the egg for 1-2 minutes until the bottom is set, then carefully flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fully cooked through.

Step 5

While the egg is finishing, spread the butter evenly on one half of the toasted English muffin.

Step 6

Place the cooked egg on the bottom half of the English muffin. Add the slice of cheddar cheese on top of the egg to allow it to melt slightly.

Step 7

If using an optional protein like ham, bacon, or sausage, add it over the cheese.

Step 8

Cap the sandwich with the remaining half of the English muffin.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your faster egg muffin as an easy breakfast or on-the-go snack!
