Bacon Egg and Cheese in a Muffin McMuffin

Posted 2016-09-27 by finyfollow

I'm not sure if I can call this a McMuffin as I tend to think that mine is somehow healtheir than the take away version!

This is the fourth recipe idea that I have made for brunch on a Sunday morning.

Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Makes: 1 serving

Ingredients
I wholemeal English muffin
1 large egg
1 slice cheese
2 rashers short cut bacon
Butter

Method
  • Using a fat free fry pan, heat it and then add the cut two pieces of the muffin. Hold them down with a spatula and cook till they go a bit brown - about 2 minutes.


  • Meanwhile put the bacon on the other side of the fry pan in a little butter.

  • Take out the toasted muffin pieces and butter liberally on both sides.

  • When the bacon is almost cooked how you like it, and using an egg ring or a can with the top and bottom off (grease this well on the inside), add the ring, and some butter inside.


  • Add the egg to the ring.


  • Cook till it the egg starts to set, and then lift off the egg ring (you may have to cut round the edge), and carefully turn the egg round.

  • Cook for another minute - do not overcook.

  • You could put a knife in the egg yolk to break it slightly when you first start to cook it, so that you don't have the messy egg yolk running when you assemble/eat the muffin.

  • Put the slice of cheese on the bottom part of the muffin, add the egg, and then the bacon.


  • I then put it back in the pan for about a minute on each side, so that the cheese would slightly melt.

  • Put the top on the muffin, and it is ready to eat!

  • If you want to save calories, do not eat the top part of the muffin, use less butter and a low fat cheese!
