Fakeaway Bacon and Egg McMuffin
Save money with a McDonalds breakfast fakeaway by making this quick and easy Bacon and Egg Muffin recipe at home!
Servings: 1 muffin
Cost: 80p
Ingredients
- 2 rashers streaky bacon
- melted butter for brushing
- 1 egg
- 1 English muffin
- 1 cheese slice
Instructions
- Cook the bacon according to pack instructions. I fried ours in a little oil for 3-4 minutes, turning the rashers half-way through.
- Once the bacon is cooked, remove from the pan and keep warm until ready to serve.
- Brush the inside of an egg ring and the frying pan with a little butter.
- Break egg into the ring, then cover the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes until cooked through. If you don't have an egg ring, just break the egg straight into the pan - it might not look as neat but it'll taste just as good!
- Whilst the egg is cooking, slice the muffin in half and pop each half into the toaster to lightly toast.
- Once toasted, remove the muffin, brush with a little melted butter and add a slice of cheese to the bottom half. Add the bacon rashers and the fried egg, then finish with the top half of the muffin.
- For an extra authentic fakeaway experience, wrap your muffin in a square of baking paper and serve with hash browns and orange juice on the side.
