Egg Sandwich Recipe

Whether you are used to going through the drive-thru at a local coffee shop or you buy the freezer breakfast sandwiches at the grocery store, you may be spending a lot to have a convenient on-the-go egg sandwich. This is the perfect solution that saves time, money, and has little mess.

Cooking everything in one pan at the same time rather than toasting bread separately gives this better flavor and makes it super easy to make without having to dirty multiple pans.

If you like eggs as the star of the show, you may also like these Italian baked eggs in tomato sauce or even the easy vegetable bacon frittata recipe. Much like this recipe, these can both be used for breakfast, lunch, snack, or dinner.

Variation Ideas for an Egg Sandwich

While this recipe has ham shown, you can add any of your favorite breakfast meats such as sausage, or even luncheon meat if you prefer. I love keeping this oven-baked bacon on hand for a fast and easy addition to breakfast or any meal. It would be perfect for popping in this sandwich. Below are a few other ideas that can really make this a unique sandwich every time!

Ham, sausage, or bacon.
Mayonnaise, dill, and pickles for an "egg salad" flavor.
Cheddar, mozzarella, gouda, or fontina cheese grated or sliced and placed over the egg once flipped.
Add additional seasoning such as classic salt and black pepper, taco seasoning, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, or onion powder.
Top with pre-grilled onions, mushrooms, or bell peppers for an omelet style sandwich.
Whisk chopped spinach or kale in with the eggs before cooking for added flavor and nutrients.

Make sure that whatever you put in the middle is already pre-cooked as the sandwich only has time to cook the egg and not breakfast meat.

Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the egg has cooked almost through and is just starting to brown on the bottom, then flip the entire egg and bread dish over so the other side can begin cooking.

While the eggs finish cooking, top one of the slices of bread with lettuce, ham, and ketchup.

Once the bottom of the eggs is cooked through (about 1 minute), flip the sides of the eggs up and over the fillings then fold over to create a sandwich.

Slice then serve hot.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Do I Keep My Eggs from Sticking to the Pan?

The key to cooking eggs without them sticking is a great non-stick pan or a well-oiled pan. Eggs are best when cooked in a non-stick pan that has a light coating of oil or butter. Just remember that butter can burn easily, so a neutral oil may be a better option.

How Can I Make This Egg Sandwich Better?

Above are some variations that can really elevate the flavor of this sandwich. You may also want to toast the bread before putting it into the egg, or even use a different bread such as a whole grain or even a garlic bread with more flavor.

When Should I Add Cheese to The Sandwich?

If you want to add cheese to your sandwich, it should be put directly onto the eggs immediately after flipping over. Then top with your other toppings and fold as directed. This will make sure the cheese melts nicely.

Can I Make the TikTok Egg Sandwich Ahead of Time?

You can definitely make this sandwich ahead of time. If you are making them ahead of time to reheat, it is best to leave off any lettuce or greens until ready to serve. Otherwise, they can be made ahead of time and reheated in a skillet or microwave before serving.

How Long is an Egg Sandwich Good For?

Generally, this recipe is best served within 3 days of preparation. Make sure any leftovers or made-ahead sandwiches are stored in an airtight container or wrapper in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
