Egg Muffin Breakfast Sandwich

Essentials

Ingredients

  • 500 g water (for steaming)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 slices Canadian bacon or back bacon
  • 4 slices American cheese

  • 20 g butter, softened
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  5. 5 While the eggs steam, split 4 English muffins and toast until golden. Spread softened butter on the cut sides while warm.Weigh
  6. 6 Carefully lift the Varoma off the bowl, keeping your face clear of the escaping steam.
  7. 7 Place a slice of American cheese on each bottom muffin half. Top with a hot slice of Canadian bacon so the heat melts the cheese into the bread.

Notes

Tips

  • The Varoma gives every egg the same round shape without greasy ring molds on a griddle, and the gentle steam sets whites firm while keeping yolks just tender. For a runnier yolk drop the steam to 10 min.
  • Silicone cupcake liners release cleaner than hard ramekins, a light butter smear inside guarantees the cooked egg pops straight out.
  • Swap Canadian bacon for crisp streaky bacon if preferred, pre-cook it in a pan since the Varoma steams rather than crisps.
  • Make ahead, wrap assembled sandwiches in foil, refrigerate, then reheat 20 sec in a microwave or 5 min in a 180C oven for a fast weekday breakfast.
