Sausage Breakfast Sandwich – This sausage egg and cheese breakfast sandwich is super easy to make ahead and have stashed in your freezer for those busy mornings.
A Sausage Breakfast Sandwich is the ultimate way to start your morning—hearty, satisfying, and full of flavor. Whether you’re feeding a hungry crowd or just want a quick grab-and-go option, these sandwiches are easy to make ahead and freeze for busy weekdays. Use your favorite breakfast sausage, fluffy eggs, and melty cheese on your favorite English muffin.
I have been making these freezer breakfast sandwiches for years to help with busy mornings. I like to actually set up an assembly line, stack everything and then wrap them up tight. These freezer breakfast sandwiches are great to have on hand for busy mornings, when you don’t have a lot of time.

How To Make Sausage Breakfast Sandwiches
- Make Eggs. Beat eggs with salt and pepper until really well beaten. Pour into a pan and bake until the eggs are cooked. Remove from the oven and slice into squares.
- Sausage. While the eggs are cooking prepare your sausage patties. If you are using fully cooked sausage and just making these for the freezer, you do not need to do anything. But if you are enjoying right away or your sausage is not cooked, you will want to brown and heat it through.
- Assemble. Arrange your toasted English muffins in front of you. Top each one with a slice of cheese, a square of cooked egg and a sausage patty. Place to top of the English muffin on.
- Store. If you want to enjoy immediately, just make sure everything is hot when you assemble them and serve. Otherwise wrap each sandwich with a small piece of paper towel, and store in an airtight container. this helps to absorb any moisture when reheating and make sure things don’t get soggy.
Recipe Tips & Suggestions
- Paper Towel. You wrap the sandwich in paper towel because it helps to absorb any moisture when reheating and make sure things don’t get soggy.
- Cheese. Use whatever your favorite cheese is. Alternatively you could add shredded cheese to your eggs and skipped the sliced cheese to make things a little easier.
- Other Meats. You really can use this process with whatever your favorite protein is. Crispy bacon, leftover ham or Canadian bacon would make for great breakfast sandwiches.
- Make Ahead. The recipe as written makes enough for 8 sandwiches. You can adjust the number of eggs used to make as many or as few sandwiches as you need. These will last in the freezer for up to 6 months. So they are great to make ahead for busy mornings.

Breakfast food is the best!! This looks fantastic!!
Yum!! But must these be made for the freezer only? What’s the best way to heat the patties to make sandwiches for immediate consumption?
Cook the sausage according to the package directions. Will depend on the type of sausage you use, so just follow their directions
