I’m totally loving this way of making eggs for sandwiches! The eggs turn out moist and this English muffin tin gives you a batch-full! Fast-food chains obviously use commercial equipment in preparing their foods but with this tin, you can achieve those restaurant-style egg patties, that I’ve been wanting to recreate! It’s the perfect way to make a batch of eggs, all at one time shaped like an egg patty. They turn out super moist from the water and can easily be made ahead for freezer-friendly breakfast sandwiches! After trying this cooking method, you may just not want to fry eggs anymore, it’s really that easy!

I was buying frozen scrambled egg patties at Walmart but they stopped carrying them. I bet this would work for making patties that way too.
