Step-By-Step Photos and Directions:
Step 1: Make the guacamole or cook your preferred toppings. My homemade guacamole is not only easy to make, but it is totally flavor-packed!
*Note the corn kernels are optional. See below for the recipe!
Step 2: Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat. I used a large biscuit cutter to hold the shape of the egg so it fits on the gluten free English muffin breakfast sandwich better. You can also use these fancy egg ring molds if you prefer.
TIP: Spray cooking oil on the edges of the biscuit cutter so the egg comes off easily. This also makes cleaning up so much easier!
I let my egg cook sunny side up for a runny egg, but you can separate it and flip it over if you do not like runny eggs.
🔑 Sandi says: You can also bake these eggs! Add an egg to each section of a muffin tin and bake them at 350º F for about 15 minutes, 18 minutes if you don’t like runny eggs.
Step 3: Slice your gluten free English muffin in half on a cutting board. I like to toast mine in the toaster, but you can also put the halves cut side down on the hot frying pan to cook that way.

Step 4: Put the bottom half of the toasted English muffin on a plate. Add your cooked egg and a scoop of homemade guacamole. Don’t forget that I have a ton of topping options below!

Egg Baking Instructions:

Notes
- If you do not have a biscuit cutter, just fry the egg on a non-stick pan.

SPECIAL NOTE
Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn’t test, my rule of thumb is to add more flour if your dough or batter is wet and add more liquid if the dough or batter is too dry!

The sandwich looks delish. But I thought that this was a recipe for making the english muffins!
I do have a great gluten free English muffins recipe. Here it is: https://www.fearlessdining.com/gluten-free-english-muffins/ This post was to help Franz get the word out about their new gluten free
English muffins.
I followed your link and found that Franz no longer makes gluten free English muffins.
Oh no, that is a bummer. Thank you for letting me know. I will remove them from this post.
