Ingredients

3 eggs (L/XL)

1 tbsp milk or half + half

1/4 tsp salt

2 tbsp salted butter

1/8 tsp pepper

2 slices sharp cheddar cheese

2 breakfast sausages

2 buns

Instructions

  1. Cook/heat breakfast sausages. Lightly toast buns.
  2. Crack eggs into a small-medium bowl. Add salt and milk/half + half. Whisk with a fork until very well scrambled.
  3. Heat butter over medium-high heat in an 8-10″ skillet. Pour in eggs.
  4. Allow to cook without stirring until large bubbles begin to form (1-2 minutes). Slice in half with spatula and flip each half. Remove from heat.
  5. Break eggs in to large pieces and scramble around for a couple seconds until mostly cooked. Gather to one side, flip, and top with pepper and cheese. Allow to melt until eggs are fully cooked, about 30 seconds longer.
  6. Portion eggs in two and place on buns with hot sausages.
