Ingredients
Muffin
- 2 tsp butter
- 3 tbsp almond flour, fine, blanched
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 large liquid egg white, or about 2 tbsp liquid egg white
Filling
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp butter, for the pan
- 2 slices canadian bacon
- 1 thin slice sharp cheddar cheese
Steps
- Melt the butter in a ramekin about 4 inch across and tilt it so the butter coats the sides. Stir in the almond flour, baking powder and salt with a fork, then mix in the egg white until smooth.
- Microwave on high for 90 seconds, until firm. Cool for 2 minutes, run a knife around the edge and turn it out. Slice in half and toast the cut sides until golden.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small nonstick pan over medium heat. Warm the Canadian bacon for a minute a side and set it on the muffin. Fry the egg until the white is set, lay the cheddar on top and cover for 30 seconds to melt.
- Stack the egg on the bacon, close the sandwich and eat it hot.
Good to know
Can I use streaky bacon?
Yes, two crisp rashers, at about 29 instead of 36.
Can I make the muffins ahead?
Yes. Baked muffins keep 3 days in the fridge or freeze 3 months. Split and toast them from cold.

As written, 435 kcal goes into the pot and 175 g of ingredients comes out as about 159 g of food: 273 kcal per 100 g. Cooking moves water and energy density is the score's biggest lever, so the dish is scored as cooked, not as an average of its parts. Every ingredient links to its food page, with the same data and score. The label's percentages are each macronutrient's share of the calories. The full formula.
