Best Seasonings for Egg Patties
While these baked egg patties taste delicious with just a bit of salt and pepper, we like to add a little more flavor to our egg breakfasts.
Here are a few of our favorite seasoning blends for eggs:
- Vulcan's Fire Salt: Gives a hot and spicy kick to the eggs. If you use this, you can skip the regular salt called for in the recipe.
- Devilish Dill Egg Seasoning: This egg seasoning has dill and mustard seeds in the mix and is so yummy.
- Lake Shore Drive Seasoning: This mix has shallots, chives, and dill in the mix.
- Parisian Shallot Herbs: This blend has tarragon, shallots, and chervil.

Beat the Eggs
Prepping the eggs is so very simple. Just crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl.
Add the milk, salt and pepper, and any egg seasoning you want to use.
Whisk it together. That's it!
Baking Instructions
Preheat the oven to 325°F.
Rub softened butter all around the inside of a 9 x 13-inch pan.
Pour the eggs in and bake them for 18 minutes or until they are firmly set.
You don't want to overcook the eggs, but if they are a little jiggly at the center, you can bake them up to 20 minutes if needed.
Cool and Slice
Let the eggs cool slightly so they hold together.
Run a knife or spatula around the edge of the pan and then cut the eggs into 12 patty squares.
Make Ahead Tips
You can store the baked egg patties in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Just gently reheat them in the microwave and serve.
Freezing Instructions
You can freeze the baked egg patties for up to 3 months.
If you freeze them alone, be sure to separate them with layers of waxed paper or parchment paper so they don't stick together.
It works even better to have them tucked into a freezer breakfast sandwich.
Just thaw the egg patties in the fridge overnight and reheat them in the microwave.
Best Toppings for Egg Sandwiches
There are plenty of delicious ways you could top an egg sandwich.
I often mix and match any of the following items:
- Fresh Tomato Slices
- Fresh Arugula or Spinach
- Leftover Grilled Peppers and Onions
- Slices of Cheese: Cheddar, Provolone, Swiss
- Add a Slice of Deli Meat
- Slice of Canadian Bacon
- Peppered Bacon
- Turkey Sausage
Serving Suggestions
My favorite way to use these delicious baked egg patties is to tuck them into a sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich using my favorite turkey breakfast sausage.
You could also make a bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich with my peppered bacon.
I love that each egg patty isn't too thick, it is just the right amount of egg for my sandwich.
However, the egg patties are so easy to double up. You could skip the sausage and add 2 egg patties if you prefer.
You could also use the egg patties to make quick and easy eggs benedict with a variety of different toppings. Be sure to read some of my suggestions for eggs benedict variations here.
