Ingredients

  • 12 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 8 English muffins
  • 8 slices cheddar cheese
  • 8 slices breakfast sausage, bacon or ham, precooked
  • 1 tbsp butter, optional

Instructions

Egg Bake Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan well with cooking spray or oil. Set aside.
  • Crack 12 eggs into a large bowl. Add milk, salt, pepper and onion powder and whisk well.
  • Pour egg mixture into the 9 x 13 pan and cook for approximately 18 minutes. (The eggs should be set in the center.)

Assemble the Sandwiches

  • Open the English muffins and toast or broil them until slightly toasted. Add butter to each one (optional but delicious).
  • Cut the egg bake into 8 equal pieces.
  • For each sandwich, add one piece of egg, one piece of bacon, sausage or ham, and one slice of cheddar cheese.
  • If using a microwave to reheat: Wrap each sandwich in freezer paper and place in a large ziplock bag. Freeze for up to 6 months or refrigerate for up to 5 days before reheating.
  • If reheating over the campfire or camp stove: Double wrap each sandwich in two pieces of aluminum foil. Freeze for up to 6 months or refrigerate for up to 5 days before reheating.

Reheating

  • In the Microwave: Unwrap the sandwich from the freezer paper and wrap in a paper towel. Use the defrost setting to defrost for one minute. Then, heat on full power in increments of 30 seconds until it's heated through.
  • Over the Campfire: Allow sandwiches to defrost before reheating. Place the sandwiches (already double wrapped in aluminum foil) on a grate over the campfire. Rotate the sandwiches every couple of minutes and flip halfway through. Reheat time will vary, but it will take approximately 10-15 minutes.
