If you are a fan of the egg mcmuffin, put this recipe on your ‘to make’ list! Easy and delicious!
❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE
We love an easy breakfast recipe and this is just that! Simple to make and great for a weekend morning, as you can assemble it the night before. This is also made in an 8X8 so it’s perfect for just a few people, plus it’s only a handful of ingredients and also versatile.
SWAPS & ADDITIONS
You can easily substitute the pork sausage with turkey sausage for reduced fat and increased protein. You can also switch out the cheese to any your family prefers. We prefer using buttermilk English muffins, but you can also use whole wheat ones or any other type you prefer. Additionally, French bread would also work. Add any spices you like to achieve the desired flavor. We enjoyed it just the way it is.

⭐TIP
If you are a fan of the McGriddle then top this with syrup! It is so good! Some people love it with ketchup.. but we prefer it sweet.
