Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Arrange the bacon slices on the pan in a single layer, ensuring they don’t overlap. Bake for about 15 minutes or until they are crispy and golden brown. Once done, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease while you prepare the sausage.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the sausage patties in a single layer. Allow them to cook for 3–4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 160°F (70°C). Once they are cooked, drain them on paper towels to remove any excess fat before moving to the next step.
- In a large mixing bowl, crack the 12 eggs and whisk them together with ¼ cup of milk, salt, and pepper until fully combined. Pour the egg mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread it out evenly. Bake at 325°F (165°C) for 30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and slightly golden around the edges. Let the baked eggs cool before cutting them into 12 equal portions.
- While the eggs cool, slice each English muffin in half and lightly butter each side. This will add extra flavor and ensure a golden-toasted finish. Place them cut-side up on a baking sheet and toast under the broiler until they are crispy and golden, which should take about 2–3 minutes—be sure to watch them closely!
- Once all components are cool, it’s time to assemble your Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches. On the bottom half of each toasted English muffin, layer a portion of the egg, followed by a slice of crisp bacon and a sausage patty. Top it off with the other half of the muffin, pressing down gently to secure all ingredients in place for easy wrapping.
- After assembling, allow the sandwiches to cool completely. Wrap each breakfast sandwich tightly in parchment paper or plastic wrap. Label each sandwich with its main ingredient—bacon or sausage—and place all wrapped sandwiches in a large freezer bag. Be sure to squeeze out any air before sealing. These sandwiches can be frozen for up to 3 months, making meal prep a breeze!
- To enjoy your homemade Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches, you can cook them straight from frozen or allow them to thaw overnight in the fridge. For reheating, simply place them in the microwave for about 1-2 minutes, or until heated through. You can also use an oven to reheat them at 350°F (175°C) for about 15 minutes for a crispier finish.

Notes
Use fresh ingredients for best flavor and avoid overcooking your eggs. Wrap sandwiches tightly to avoid freezer burn.
