Ingredients
- 2 English muffins
- 2 Eggs
- 4 Bacon strips
- 2 Cheddar cheese slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the bacon strips to the skillet and cook until crispy, about 4-5 minutes on each side. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
Step 3
Lightly spread 1 tablespoon of butter on each half of the English muffins.
Step 4
Place the buttered muffins in the skillet, cut side down, and toast them for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
Step 5
In the same skillet, add the vegetable oil and heat over medium-low heat.
Step 6
Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Cook the eggs to your preference: sunny-side-up or over-easy typically works best for sandwiches, about 2-3 minutes for slightly runny yolks.
Step 7
Place one slice of cheddar cheese on top of each egg during the final minute of cooking to allow it to melt slightly.
Step 8
Assemble the sandwich: place two bacon strips on the bottom half of each toasted muffin, followed by the cheesy egg, then top with the other half of the muffin.
Step 9
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your delicious bacon and egg muffin.
