Homemade Sausage and Egg McMuffin
Recipe video above. This is my copycat of McDonald's Sausage and Egg McMuffin. The sausage patties are made from scratch and it really does taste similar to the McDonald's Sausage patty - but it tastes pure, like real food should! Great make ahead breakfast - grab and run!

Ingredients
- 1 lb / 500g ground pork ((juicier) OR beef (mince) (Note 1))
- 1/2 tsp dried ground sage
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp onion powder ((or garlic powder))
- 3/4 tsp black pepper
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp sugar ((any))
- 2 tbsp oil
- 4 eggs
- 4 English muffins (, cut in half)
- 4 slices cheese ((Note 3))
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 130C/275F.
-
Place muffins on a baking tray, cut side up, and top with cheese. (Alternative - melt cheese on sausage patties, see video)
-
Mix Sausage Patty ingredients in a bowl - use your hands to mix it real good!
-
Shape into 4 patties (thick ones, or 5 Maccers size patties). Make them slightly larger than the muffins because they will shrink when cooking.
-
Heat oil in a large non stick skillet over high heat. Add patties (in batches if needed). Cook the first side for 2 - 3 minutes or until browned. Flip then cook the other side until browned. (Optional: After flipping, top with cheese, cover with lid to melt).
-
Meanwhile, heat another pan over medium high heat with 1 tbsp oil. Spray egg rings with oil and place in the skillet. (Note 4 for other cook methods).
-
Crack egg into the rings. Add around 2 tbsp water into the skillet then cover with a lid. Cook for 1 - 2 minutes or until egg is cooked to your liking (I like runny yolks).
-
Remove warm muffins from the oven. Top with sausage, then egg, the lid of muffin.
-
Serve and enjoy!
