Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 English muffins, split
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 slices cheddar cheese or Swiss cheese
  • 4 large eggs

Spices

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • Pinch salt
  • Pinch black pepper

Instructions

  1. Heat the butter: Heat 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until melted, preparing the pan for cooking the eggs.
  2. Cook the eggs with spices: Crack the four large eggs directly into the skillet and gently break the yolks with a spatula. Evenly sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, salt, and black pepper over the eggs for flavor.
  3. Add English muffin halves: Immediately place the split English muffin halves, cut-side down, on the uncooked sides of the eggs, ensuring the muffins make direct contact with the eggs.
  4. Cook until eggs set and muffins toast: Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the eggs are mostly set and the bottoms of the muffins are lightly toasted.
  5. Invert the egg-muffin assembly: Using a wide spatula, carefully flip the entire assembly so the English muffins are now directly on the skillet and the eggs face upwards.
  6. Add cheese slices: Place one slice of cheddar or Swiss cheese on each egg portion to allow it to melt.
  7. Fold eggs and form sandwiches: Fold the cooked edges of the eggs neatly over the muffins, then press the muffin halves together to form complete sandwiches.
  8. Toast sandwiches: Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the pan, then toast the assembled sandwiches on both sides until they are golden brown and the cheese is fully melted, about 2 minutes per side.
  9. Serve hot: Transfer the sandwiches to plates and serve immediately while hot for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Use a nonstick skillet for easy flipping and cooking.
  • Customize the cheese choice between cheddar or Swiss as preferred.
  • Adjust spices according to taste or omit if preferred milder flavors.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy melted cheese and crisp muffins.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding cooked bacon or sausage inside the sandwich.
