Air Fryer Breakfast Sandwich On the Go

Working from home during the pandemic has forced me to get creative and work around what was my normal routine. While I enjoy that "famous" breakfast muffin from the comfort of my own home now, I came up with this on-the-go air fryer version to send off with my husband in the mornings. The fast food chain has nothing on this.

Ingredients

• 1 large egg
• salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• nonstick cooking spray
• 1 slice American cheese
• 1 (1.2 oz) patty fully cooked breakfast sausage
• 1 medium English muffin, split

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Center a mason jar lid, upside down, on a 5-inch square of aluminum foil. Fold the foil up and around the lid to act as a round mold. Spray the foil with nonstick spray and crack egg into the center. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Place egg mold and frozen sausage patty next to each other in the air fryer basket; cook for 4 minutes. Flip sausage patty over, add English muffin halves, and cook 4 minutes more.

Step 4

Place one English muffin half on a sheet of parchment paper. Add cheese, sausage patty, and egg. Top with remaining English muffin half. Wrap and go.
