Equipment Needed

Ingredients Needed

Eggs: Eggs add extra protein, richness and flavor to this turkey bacon breakfast sandwich! If you are not able to tolerate eggs, you can omit them. Try replacing them with avocado instead.

Milk: I used dairy free milk in this recipe because I am dairy free. Feel free to use regular milk. Milk adds creaminess and richness to the egg squares.

Spices and Salt: My favorite is Redmond’s Real Salt because it is high-quality and made with zero fillers. If you use my discount code LESSWITHLAUR you can get 15% off Redmond’s website. I also used garlic powder and red pepper flakes for extra flavor.

Bell Peppers: I used frozen bell peppers here to cut down on time and to add some color to this recipe! You can use any kind of vegetables here.

Turkey Bacon: My favorite place to get meat is ButcherBox because they have organic and high quality options and it gets delivered right to your door!

English Muffins: I used gluten free English muffins here because I am gluten free. Feel free to use regular English muffins or a different type of bread.

Cheese: I used dairy free cheese in this recipe. Feel free to use any kind of cheese you desire!

Sauce: I used burger sauce on these breakfast sandwiches. Feel free to mix it up and use a different sauce.

Step 2: Combine eggs, spices, bell peppers and milk in a greased 8×8 baking dish.

Step 3: Bake for 30 minutes, or until lightly browned on the bottom.

Step 4: While egg bake is cooking, toast English muffins.

Variations

Meat: I used turkey bacon on this sandwich but you can try using other meats as well. Try out regular bacon, sausage, ham, steak or brisket.

Cheese: I used dairy free cheddar cheese on these turkey bacon breakfast sandwiches. Feel free to use regular cheese as well! You can also mix up the type of cheese. Try out feta, swiss, provolone, havarti, pepperjack or goat cheese. These are also several different types of dairy free cheese these days!

Bread: I used gluten free English muffins in this recipe. You can also use regular english muffins. Try changing it up by using a bagel, bread, croissant or brioche bun.

Vegetables: I used bell peppers in the egg to add some extra nutrients. Feel free to add additional vegetables to either the egg bake or on top of the sandwich. Some ideas are onion, tomato, spinach, mushrooms or avocado!

Sauce: I used burger sauce on these sandwiches but there are so many sauce options! Try using hot sauce, buffalo sauce or ranch!

How to Serve

This turkey bacon breakfast sandwich is the perfect grab-and-go breakfast. They can be eaten both cold and warm, but I prefer to heat them up!

Storage

Store this turkey bacon breakfast sandwich in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3-5 days. These sandwiches can also be frozen for up to 3 months! It’s amazing to be able to have them on hand at all times.

To reheat these breakfast sandwiches, you can put them in the microwave, toaster or oven.

Oven: This method works well for both homemade and store-bought frozen breakfast sandwiches. Preheat your oven to 350°F. If the sandwich was pre-wrapped in foil, remove it. Bake for 10-15 minutes for a thawed and warmed sandwich.

Toaster: Preheat your toaster oven to 350°F. Reheat for 15-20 minutes, or until warmed through.

Microwave: While possible, the microwave is the least recommended method for reheating a frozen breakfast sandwich as it can lead to uneven heating and a soggy texture. If using the microwave, defrost on low power for 1-2 minutes before reheating on medium power for 30-60 seconds, flipping halfway through for best results.
