English Muffin Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches

I love a hot breakfast in the morning, but there is no way I am willing to wake up earlier enough to make something before work. That’s why I love freezer meals that I can reheat without too much brain power. These English muffin freezer breakfast sandwiches are my new favorite. My husband and I both enjoy them. Easy, filling, not a lot of work. They check every box.

English Muffin Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches For the Not so Morning Person

I have never been a morning person. Therefore, I try to remain under the covers for as long as possible before having to get up. That means, I don’t have time to cook a homemade breakfast before leaving for work. As a teacher, I don’t have the luxury of stopping for a snack midmorning at school. So of course, I’m starving by lunchtime. This is especially difficult after a long break while my stomach adjusts to the school schedule.

However a yummy English muffin freezer breakfast sandwich and a cold glass of milk will get me out the door on time and keep me full until lunch. It beats a bowl full of cold cereal any day. No grumbly tummy for me!

My husband has been known to slip one in his pocket before leaving for work. Despite a 30 minute commute, when he arrives the sandwich is still frozen. Whenever he gets settled, he slips down to the office kitchen and heats it up. He appreciates that it is easy to take with him and that it does not require dirtying any dishes.

English Muffin Freezer Breakfast Sandwich Swaps

These easy little sandwiches can be customized to your tastes and switched up when you need a change of pace. That’s what makes them so great! 

The sourdough English muffin can be swapped for a bagel, a croissant, or a biscuit. Use whatever you have already made up to get rid of leftovers. My husband’s favorite is a croissant like the Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches. I like the English muffin for the probiotics of the sourdough. 

We use colby jack cheese for our breakfast sandwiches, but you can use whatever you like. We just have a wide range of cheeses that we enjoy. Pepperjack might give the sandwich a little zip if you prefer something a bit spicier.

The meat that we use on the sandwiches varies based on what sounds good and what is available. The Canadian bacon can be changed out for sausage patties or bacon if you wish. Or you could just add more types of meat to the Canadian bacon.

English Muffin Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches Recipe

Ingredients

Canadian bacon

Cheese

Sourdough English muffins

Scrambled eggs

Instructions

1. First you need to make or purchase some English Muffins. I use my sourdough English muffin recipe so that I get some probiotics with my breakfast. 
2. Then slice the cheese so that there is enough for each English muffin freezer breakfast sandwich. I like to buy big blocks of cheese and use our cheese slicer.
3. Next scramble one egg per sandwich with the best whisk ever created. I like to cook ten of them at a time in a glass 9×13 pan in the oven. It allows me to cut them out with a pizza cutter so that they fit nicely on the sandwich. Plus, it speeds up the process. 
4. Finally, slice the English muffins in half and layer on the Canadian bacon and cheese slices. 

They will stay fresh for a week in the fridge or you can freeze them if you need them to keep for a longer time. I like to leave the eggs in the pan already cut but layered with cheese and meat. I cover it with plastic wrap to store in the fridge. When I’m ready to eat I pull a slice of egg, cheese, and meat then toss it on the English muffin to reheat. This keeps the muffins from getting soggy.

Freezing English Muffin Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches

After the sandwiches are made, wrap each one with parchment paper. Then place them in gallon sized plastic bags. This will help prevent freezer burn and will keep the sandwiches from sticking together. I suggest laying them out flat to freeze. A cookie sheet works great for this. 

When you are ready to eat, pop the English muffin freezer breakfast sandwiches in the microwave until they are warm all the way through. I like to wrap mine in a damp paper towel to keep the muffin from getting gross in the microwave.
