Gluten Free McDonalds Egg McMuffin

Ingredients

  • 1 Gluten Free English Muffin toasted (I recommend the Genius Gluten Free English Muffins)
  • 1-2 Eggs 2 eggs works great for a really thick egg!
  • 1 Slice of Cheese For Dairy Free, I recommend Violife Cheddar Slices
  • 1-2 Bacon Medallions I chose Medallions as they are a better shape & less fatty
  • Butter or Dairy Free Spread optional if you like to butter your muffin!

Instructions

  • Turn your oven on to ensure you can keep everything warm as things might finish at different times!
  • Get your bacon medallions and grill them for a couple of minutes on each side (or however long you cook your bacon for!) & Place in the oven to keep warm.
  • Heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan (I used a spray as you really do not need a lot)
  • Once the pan is hot place your poachette ring in the centre of the pan & crack your egg(s) into it.
  • Break the yolk of the egg(s)
  • To ensure a fluffy egg, add a small amount of water to the outside of the ring mould.
  • Cover the pan with a lid to allow the egg to steam a little, this will ensure it cooks on both the top and the bottom. (I didn't have a lid for my frying pan, instead I used a saucepan lid that rested on the poachette ring, this worked fine)
  • Like cooking any eggs this won't take very long, slightly longer if you are using two eggs, but not much.
  • Once the egg is cooked take it off the heat and carefully remove the poachette ring, you might need a knife to lightly ease it from the sides of the ring, although mine was non stick.
  • Get your toasted muffin and lightly butter it.
  • Place a slice of your preferred cheese on the bottom of the muffin.
  • Place your 'egg patty' onto the cheese.
  • Then place your bacon on top of that!
  • Finish it off by placing the other half of your toasted gluten free english muffin on top.
  • Serve with some grilled hash browns (you could have cooked these when you grilled your bacon)
  • Enjoy!

Notes

Poachette Rings are the best way to make sure the egg comes out McMuffin style!
I like to serve mine with a couple of hash browns, grilled in the oven & a large glass of fresh orange juice.
