Equipment

  • Half Sheet Pan
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients

  • 4 English Muffins (see note)
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter, softened
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 4 slices Cheese
  • Salt and Black Pepper
  • 8 slices Cooked Bacon
  • Other toppings like arugula, spinach, hot sauce, etc.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil (this is optional but will make it easy to clean up any egg that drips off the English muffin).
  • Slice open English muffins and spread them out in a single layer on the sheet pan. Spread the tops halves of the English muffins with butter (leave the bottom halves plain).
  • Using your fingers or a spoon, pull most of the bread out of the center of the bottom halves of the English muffins, forming a “nest” for the eggs.
  • Transfer the sheet pan to the oven and bake the English muffins until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven. Crack an egg into each of the “nests” you made in the bottoms of the English muffins. (Don’t worry too much if some of the egg drips over the edges.) Add cheese to the top halves of the English Muffins.
  • Return the pan to the oven and continue baking until the egg whites are firm and yolks are cooked to your liking, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Season the eggs with some salt and pepper.
  • Add bacon and other toppings and then combine the top and bottom halves of the English muffins. Enjoy!

Notes

English Muffins - The thicker the English Muffins, the easier it will be to make the “nests” for the eggs, so if you have a few options at the grocery store, look for thick ones. Bay’s English Muffins work particularly well.
