Why You'll Love This Recipe

  • Cheaper than grocery store versions
  • Customize with what you love
  • Gluten Free and Low FODMAP

Featured Ingredients

three ingredients for breakfast sandwiches.
  • Eggs - Use cage-free, free-range, farm-fresh, or whatever is your favorite!
  • Black Pepper - Eggs need flavor, and freshly cracked ground black pepper is a great option.
  • Kosher Salt - Salt adds great flavor to eggs!

See the recipe card for the exact measurements and complete instructions.

Step-By-Step Instructions

a dozen of eggs cracked into a bowl.

Step 1: Crack the eggs into a large measuring bowl or a container that is easy to pour. 

Step 2: Whisk the eggs together until combined.

Step 3: Spray the whoopie pie pan with nonstick cooking spray or use softened butter. 

Step 4: Fill each dwelling with the beaten egg mixture. Sprinkle a bit of kosher salt and ground black pepper over each one. Bake in a 350 degree F for fifteen minutes or until eggs are no longer jiggly. 

Tips and Tricks

Use two pans to quickly make 24 egg patties! This will make enough breakfast sandwiches for the entire family for a month! Or until they eat them all.

Use a plastic knife to remove the cooked egg patties. This will prevent scratches on the nonstick metal pan.

No pan? Make sheet pan eggs with cottage cheese as a great alternative.

Ingredient Swaps

  • Egg Whites - Purchase a carton of pure egg whites or separate the yoke and egg whites yourself. 
  • Egg Beaters - Easiest option. Just open the carton and pour. 

Egg Patty Variations

Bacon and Green Onion Egg Patties: Add cooked, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions before baking the eggs. This will add a great flavor to the egg patties!

Whole Egg Patty: Just like the McMuffin egg patty, crack an egg into each dwelling in the pan and use a toothpick to break the yolk and swirl it a bit.

Storing and Reheating

Store: Keep as many egg patties as needed in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. 

Reheat: Place a chilled egg patty on a plate and microwave for 30 seconds or until warm. 

Frozen: Store chilled egg patties in a freezer-friendly container with a piece of parchment paper between each patty. Use within four months for best results. Defrost before reheating.

Breakfast Meat Options

Check ingredient labels to be sure whatever option you choose is indeed gluten free.

  • Homemade Gluten Free Breakfast Sausage Patties - Make your own in the same whoopie pie pan used for the egg patties. It is a perfect ratio of meat to egg!
  • Canadian Bacon - It is a perfect size!
  • Turkey Bacon - Flavor of bacon, without all the fat. 
  • Deli Ham - Thinly sliced deli ham layered on top of the egg patty. 
  • Cottage Bacon - A meatier bacon option used in BLTs that is a perfect size.
  • Turkey Breakfast Sausage - Amazing flavor without the fat.

Bread Options

  • Gluten Free English Muffin - I like the Glutino option or that one magical month when Aldi has gluten free English muffins in stock. 
  • Gluten Free Bagels - This is my favorite option. Canyon Bakehouse Gluten Free bagels are my favorite brand.
  • Gluten Free Bread - Always smaller than normal bread, so it conveniently fits the egg patty perfectly.
  • No Bread - Skip the bread completely, and use two egg patties to hold in the meat and cheese!

Cheese Options

  • Cheddar Cheese - Classic cheese taste.
  • Pepperjack Cheese - For a bit of spice with a great melting factor, especially if you go with the hot gluten free breakfast sausage.
  • Swiss Cheese - Paired with turkey sausage or turkey bacon, it is a delicious option. 
  • Dairy-Free - Omit cheese entirely for a dairy-free option.

Fresh Toppings

  • Sliced Avocado - Add a healthy fat to the sandwich.
  • Arugula or Baby Spinach - Add some additional greens to your breakfast.
  • Sliced Bell Peppers - Add a bit of crunch to the breakfast sandwich.

FAQs

What else can I use if I don’t have a whoopie pie pan to make the egg patties?

You can use a muffin tin, but the egg patty will be thicker. Another option is a metal mason jar lid. Grease it well or the egg will stick to it. I would purchase the whoopie pie pan and use it to make the egg patties, gluten-free breakfast sausage, and for dessert, Twinkie cake. One pan, so many options!

How long can I keep the egg patties in the freezer?

The frozen egg patties will last up to three months in the freezer in a freezer-friendly container and up to 3-4 days in the refrigerator.

Meal Planning

If you are hosting a sleepover party or have a large family, serve all 12 egg patties immediately. Build the sandwiches right away and customize them to everyone's tastes.

If you need another meal-prep breakfast option, try cookies and cream overnight oats! They are a great egg-free meal prep option!

Additional Meal Prep Recipes

  • How To Meal Prep Cooked Frozen Ground Beef - One of my favorite tricks, and I have used it for over a decade in my kitchen. 
  • Frozen Breakfast Burritos - Another classic meal prep idea from my kitchen. We love to have these breakfast burritos in the freezer. 
  • Cooked Chicken Breasts In Crock Pot - This is another shortcut I use for recipes that call for cooked chicken. I keep cooked, diced chicken in the freezer for quicker meal prep.

Equipment

  • Whoopie Pie Pan

Ingredients

  • 12 large eggs (Note 1)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • nonstick cooking spray or softened butter for the pan
Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, crack all the eggs. Whisk until fully combined.
  • Grease the whoopie pie pan with nonstick cooking spray or softened butter.
  • Pour the whisked eggs into each dwelling until almost the top. Each dwelling will hold one egg, so enough egg mixture fills all 12 spots equally.
  • Sprinkle a bit of kosher salt and ground black pepper into each dwelling.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes or until eggs are fully cooked. The eggs will puff up during the cooking process but quickly deflate once removed from the oven.
  • If serving right away, place the egg patty on a gluten free bread choice, along with meat and cheese if using. Wrap the entire sandwich in aluminum foil to keep it warm.
  • If freezing, place the egg patties on a cooling rack and let it cool fully before placing it in a freezer-friendly container. Place a piece of wax or parchment paper between each egg patty for easy removal.
    Reheat the patty on a microwave-safe plate in the microwave until heated through.

Notes

Note 1: Other options include egg whites or egg beaters. 
Gluten Free Bread Options: Use gluten-free bread, bagels, or English muffins, or two egg patties for a low carb, no bread option.
Gluten Free Breakfast Meat Options: Homemade breakfast sausage, bacon, turkey bacon, deli ham or candian bacon. 
Storage: Keep cooled egg patties in a freezer friendly container with a piece of wax paper or parchment paper between each patty. Remove one at a time and reheat in the microwave until warm. Add breakfast meat, cheese and enjoy!
Nutrition:  Nutrition information does not include bread, meat, or cheese.

Hello, I'm Venessa! After a diagnosis that would change how I cook and eat meals, I had to adapt my favorite recipes to be low FODMAP—turning what was once a sour lemon into something loveable. So join me on a delicious journey to falling in love with food again.
