✅Why The Air Fryer Is The Best Way To Heat A Frozen Breakfast Sandwich
- Unlike the microwave, the texture is not altered- so your sandwich won’t be soggy!
- The air fryer warms the inside and toasts the outside.
- You don’t have to wait as long as you would if you were to use the oven.
- If your air fryer basket is large enough, you can make a few at once if you’ve got kids or a crowd to feed on a busy morning.
🍳How To Make Frozen Breakfast Sandwiches In Air Fryer
Preheat the air fryer: Turn your air fryer to 350F and preheat for 3-5 minutes.
Separate the sandwich: Using a fork, separate the meat, egg, and bread. If you can separate the cheese, leave it out for now. If not, keep it on the egg with the cheese side up.
Air fry the breakfast sandwich: Place the bread cut side up in the air fryer basket alongside the egg with cheese, and meat. Air fry for 6-8 minutes or until the meat and egg is warmed through and the bread is toasted. If you have separated your cheese, add it in the last 60 seconds of cooking time.
Assemble and serve: Remove the breakfast sandwich components with a spatula. Assemble the sandwich and enjoy it while hot!
👩🏻🍳Air Fryer Cooking Tips
- How long do you cook a frozen breakfast sandwich in the air fryer? The best time and temperature to warm a breakfast sandwich depends on the type of sandwich you’re using. Start at 350F for 5 minutes, then check to see how well done it is and adjust the time as needed.
- If the bread is too browned and toasted, remove it with tongs and let the meat and eggs cook until warm.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer or the ingredients will not cook evenly. If you need to make more than one, cook in batches.
- Use a fork to separate the meat, egg, and cheese from the bread before cooking for best results.
- If you have a breakfast sandwich made on a biscuit or a croissant, you may need to remove the bread earlier as it may cook faster than the meat and egg.
- You can use this method with any brand of frozen breakfast sandwich including Real Good Foods, Great Value, Bob Evan’s, or Julian’s Keto brand.
