Whether you’re looking for an epic vegan breakfast recipe to make for meal prep or comforting weekend breakfasts, this Vegan Breakfast Sandwich is the answer! I’m calling this the best vegan breakfast sandwich recipe for two reasons: (1) Just like my Vegan Breakfast Burritos, you can assemble and freeze the sandwiches for months at a time, making them the ultimate grab-and-go breakfast, and (2) they’re made with the most comforting ingredients, helping the sandwiches taste just like a classic breakfast sandwich you would find at a coffee shop! There are three epic layers in these freezer-friendly vegan breakfast sandwiches: They’re all layered on a toasted English muffin with the toppings of your choice. Grab one when you’re heading out the door or serve them with Breakfast Potatoes and Vegan Pancakes!
Ingredients needed (with substitutions)
JUST Egg patties – Rather than using JUST Egg folded patties, we’re using liquid JUST Egg to make a large batch of fluffy, eggy, and soft homemade vegan egg patties. All you need to make the vegan egg mixture is liquid JUST Egg, flour, baking powder, and black salt (kala namak). I love using JUST Egg to make vegan omelettes and quiche because it’s easy to cook and tastes just like real eggs. It takes these sandwiches over the top! Vegan breakfast sausage rounds – I like making these sandwiches with Morning Star, Beyond, Impossible, or homemade vegan breakfast sausages. If you can’t find sausage rounds, you can use vegan bacon instead. Use your favorite store-bought brand or homemade tempeh, tofu, or carrot bacon instead. Vegan cheddar-style cheese – Use vegan cheese that melts well, like my homemade Vegan Cheddar Cheese or your favorite store-bought cheese like Violife or Chao. There’s nothing better than a gooey layer of vegan cheddar cheese on top of the vegan egg patty. English muffins – Or use regular sandwich bread or vegan biscuits.
How to make vegan breakfast sandwiches
Find the complete printable recipe with measurements below in the recipe card. Start by making the vegan JUST Egg patties. Whisk the liquid JUST Egg, flour, baking powder, and black salt in a large bowl. Pour the mixture into a greased baking pan. Bake the vegan egg mixture until it’s set around the edges and in the middle or until it’s no longer wet. Set aside to cool, then cut it into 12 squares. Meanwhile, toast the English muffins and cook the vegan sausages (or bacon) according to package instructions. To assemble the sandwiches, layer an “egg” patty on the toasted English muffin, followed by a piece of cheese and the cooked sausage or bacon. Finish by adding the toppings of your choice. To freeze the sandwiches for later: Once assembled, wrap the sandwiches tightly in a layer of plastic wrap and aluminum foil, then freeze. Zero waste option – Use reusable freezer bags for a plastic free/waste free option.
Breakfast sandwich topping ideas
You can add all kinds of tasty toppings to a vegan egg sandwich! Here are some options to get you started:
Hot sauce Vegan mayo Arugula or spinach Sliced tomatoes Sliced avocado Chipotle sauce Pickled red onions Microgreens
Tips for success
You can bake the vegan eggs up to 4 days in advance to save time. Cut them into squares and store them in an airtight container or store the entire batch in the covered baking dish in the fridge. I baked the egg mixture in a 9×13 inch baking pan but a sheet pan or even a cake pan will also work.
