Freezer breakfast sandwiches are more of a technique than a recipe, because basically all you do is make a breakfast sandwich, wrap in plastic wrap + aluminum foil, and freeze.
I keep a supply of them in our freezer for the hubs…a quick, easy breakfast for him to grab in the mornings. Obviously you can make whatever kind of sandwich you like…we typically do bacon, egg, and cheese on English muffins. I haven’t tried doing them on regular bread, but I’m sure that would work just as good. The next batch I do I want to do a few with egg, cream cheese, and caramelized onions, a tasty combination I learned from my grandmom. I think the cream cheese would freeze ok…we’ll give it a shot!
For other freezer breakfasts, I’ve also done french toast (just prepare like you normally would, lay out the cooked toast on a cookie sheet to freeze, and then once frozen, place in a freezer bag) and breakfast burritos. Leftover pancakes and waffles freeze really well too.
Basically, I love my freezer.
What about you: what freezer breakfast ideas do you have?
I’d love to hear!
My sister froze a bar of cream cheese once and when it unthawed the cream cheese was definitely funky….I like breakfast muffins, banana, blueberry, oatmeal. I wrap them individually and stick them in a gallon freezer bag or container for extra freezer burn protection! Do you stick the whole egg sandwich in the microwave then? Or how do you heat it in the morning?

Hmm, may have to cancel the cream cheese idea and just use that for fresh-made sandwiches. Thanks for the heads-up! Ben usually gets one out the night before and puts in the fridge to thaw, and then mics it in the morning. He's found that if he puts it straight from the freezer to the microwave, then the middle doesn't get heated before the outer edges get pretty hot. The muffin idea is great! I love muffins
Thanks for the clever idea! I'll definitely add that to my to do list.
