Description
A delicious breakfast option featuring spiced eggs and toasted English muffins, perfect for a satisfying start to your day.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 English muffins, split
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 slices cheddar cheese or Swiss cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- Pinch salt
- Pinch black pepper
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until melted.
- Crack the eggs into the skillet and gently break the yolks with a spatula. Sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, salt, and black pepper evenly over the eggs.
- Place English muffin halves, cut-side down, onto the uncooked side of the eggs, ensuring direct contact. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until eggs are mostly set and muffin bottoms are lightly toasted.
- Carefully flip the entire egg-muffin assembly so the muffins are on the skillet and eggs face upward.
- Place one slice of cheddar or Swiss cheese on each egg portion.
- Fold the cooked edges of the eggs over the muffins, then press the muffin halves together to form sandwiches.
- Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter to the pan and toast sandwiches on both sides until golden and cheese melts, approximately 2 minutes per side.
- Transfer sandwiches to plates and serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Feel free to experiment with different cheese options.
- These muffins can be prepared in advance and reheated for a quick breakfast.
