Instructions
- Cook Sausage: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the sausage patties until browned and cooked through, about 4–5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- Cook Eggs: In the same skillet, melt the butter. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook to your preferred doneness—fried or scrambled. Season with salt and pepper.
- Assemble: Place a slice of cheese on top of each cooked sausage patty while still hot, allowing it to melt slightly. Layer one sausage patty with melted cheese and one egg on each toasted English muffin or biscuit half. Top with the other half and serve warm.

- For added flavor, try spreading a little maple syrup or hot sauce on the sandwich before serving.
