Ingredients
2 English muffins
2 eggs
2 slices cheddar cheese
4 slices bacon
1 tablespoon butter
2 teaspoons maple syrup
Pinch salt
Pinch pepper
Instructions
1. Slice the English muffins and toast them in a skillet with butter until golden and crispy.
2. Cook bacon in a pan until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel to drain excess oil.
3. Fry or scramble the eggs to your liking. Season with salt and pepper.
4. While the eggs are still hot, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top and let it melt slightly.
5. Assemble the sandwich: bottom muffin, egg with cheese, bacon, and a drizzle of maple syrup. Top with the other muffin half.
6. Serve immediately while warm and melty. Optional: Serve with extra maple syrup on the side.
Notes
For best flavor, toast the muffins with butter in a skillet rather than a toaster.
Use thick-cut bacon for more texture and flavor.
Add a little extra maple syrup inside if you like a sweeter bite.
