When you are done, transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels so that it can drain.The bacon slices should be long enough to fit across your English muffin with hanging over the edge. If they are too long, cut the bacon into halves or thirds so that it fits.
 You can also use a small croissant; you do not have to toast the croissant, however.If you'd like a larger breakfast, try a toasted bagel instead.
 Heat the skillet for about 3 minutes over medium heat. Add ½ tablespoon of unsalted butter to the skillet, and let it melt.Gently move the skillet around to swirl the butter in it.
 You can use a fork or a mini whisk to beat the egg. If you'd like, you can season the egg with some salt and pepper.


To save time, do this step while the skillet is heating and the butter is melting.

 You may have to fold the scrambled egg a little until it fits onto the muffin. Make sure that nothing is hanging over the muffin's edge.

 Press down on the sandwich lightly to help "seal" it.
 If you used a bagel to make the sandwich, cut it in half first; this will make it easier to handle. You don't have to cut sandwiches made from English muffins or croissants because they are so small.
Fry the bacon over medium-low heat in a skillet, turning it occasionally, until it turns crispy, about 5 minutes.
