Healthy Make-Ahead Egg McMuffins Copycat Recipe – Made in a Muffin Tin!

September 13, 2016 by Tarah Thorne

School is in session, and mornings can be extra hectic. Why not make breakfast a little easier on yourself and your family?

This Healthy T recipe makes 6 Healthy Make-Ahead Egg McMuffins. You could even double the recipe and make a dozen at once.

I put a healthier twist on the McDonald’s classic Egg McMuffin by using light, whole wheat English muffins and egg beaters. This recipe takes only about 5 minutes to prep and 20 minutes to cook. After that, you can toss the McMuffins into zip-tight plastic bags to freeze them for another day!

Note: You will need a muffin tin, zip-tight plastic bags and cooking spray for this Healthy T recipe.

Did I mention you cook the egg patties in the oven?? Super easy, and less messy!

I'm a complete foodie who loves to stay fit! It's hard for me to whip up a classic recipe without adding a healthy twist, so I started my 'Healthy T' blog several years ago as a way to catalog my favorite concoctions. The support I've received in return has been remarkable. 'Healthy T' is all about eating to feel your best! Cheers!
