Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Milk
  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Butter
  • 2 pieces English muffins
  • 0.5 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 slices Cooked bacon or ham (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon Chopped chives (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your broiler to high and ensure the oven rack is in the top position.

Step 2

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper, then whisk until well combined.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, pour in the egg mixture.

Step 4

Cook the eggs gently, stirring constantly with a spatula, until they are just set but still soft and creamy. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Split the English muffins in half and toast them lightly in a toaster or under the broiler for 1-2 minutes.

Step 6

Place the toasted muffins on a baking sheet. Evenly distribute the scrambled eggs over the bottom halves of the muffins.

Step 7

Top the eggs with shredded cheddar cheese and bacon or ham slices, if using.

Step 8

Transfer the baking sheet to the oven under the broiler. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

Step 9

Remove from the oven. Garnish with chopped chives, if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Easy Egg Muffin Melts!
