The ultimate breakfast sandwich combines crispy, well-seasoned sausage patties with perfectly cooked eggs and melted cheese on toasted English muffins. It’s a restaurant-quality breakfast you can make at home in just 15 minutes—perfect for busy mornings or leisurely weekend brunches.
What makes this sandwich exceptional is starting with quality breakfast sausage. Unlike mass-produced patties with fillers and preservatives, artisanal breakfast sausage delivers authentic pork flavor enhanced by sage and pepper, creating rich taste that needs no heavy sauces or embellishments.
At Abraham’s Sausages & Meats Malaysia, our breakfast sausages are handcrafted with 85% pork shoulder and traditional seasoning—no fillers, no artificial ingredients. This recipe shows you how to transform our breakfast links into perfect sandwich patties, then build the ideal breakfast sandwich layer by layer.
ingredients
- 4 breakfast sausage patties (Abraham’s Breakfast Sausage)
- 4 eggs
- 4 English muffins, split and toasted
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: hot sauce, ketchup
METHOD
- Cook sausage patties: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook sausage patties 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 75°C. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
- Fry eggs: In the same skillet, melt butter. Crack eggs and cook to desired doneness (over-easy or over-hard work best for sandwiches). Season with salt and pepper.
- Assemble sandwiches: On bottom half of each toasted English muffin, place one sausage patty, top with cheese slice (cheese will melt from residual heat), add fried egg, and crown with top muffin half.
- Serve immediately with hot sauce or ketchup if desired.
Chef’s Tips:
- Press sausage meat into thin patties (thinner than burger patties) so they cook quickly and fit muffin size
- Toast muffins in the same skillet after cooking sausage to pick up flavor
- Make ahead: Cook sausage patties in batch, freeze, and reheat in toaster oven
