    Why This is the Best Recipe

    I used to just make eggs one at a time when my kids wanted an egg sandwich for breakfast but I think this is the best baked egg patties recipe because:

    1. Quick Prep: Whisk the eggs and milk and bake them all at once. You can feed up to 12 servings with one easy pour.
    2. Freezer-Friendly: I made a huge batch of easy breakfast sandwiches with these egg patties so that we can have a grab-and-go breakfast all month long.
    3. Easy Flavor Variations: Eggs are so fun to mix and match the seasoning blends. Check out my list of favorites below.

    Ingredients

    The eggs, milk, and seasonings are on the counter.

    All you need to make this easy egg patties recipe is:

    • Eggs
    • Milk
    • Salt & Pepper
    • Egg Seasonings (Optional)

    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.
    • A pinch of cayenne pepper

    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!

    The eggs have been whisked and there is seasoning sprinkled over the top.

    Baking Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 325°F.

    Rub softened butter all around the inside of a 9 x 13-inch pan.

    The metal 9 x 13-inch baking pan has a thick coat of butter spread over the bottom.

    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.

    The eggs have been baked and are a solid patty on the bottom of the baking pan.

    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.

    The egg patties have been sliced into squares and added to broiled english muffins on a baking sheet.

    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

    The plate has a pile of egg and english muffin sandwiches ready to be topped.

    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.
