Preparation
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine 8 eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1 Tbsp sour cream, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper and whisk thoroughly. Stir in 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese. Pour mixture into buttered 9x13 casserole and bake at 350˚F for 18-20 minutes or until fluffy and not wet on top when poked with your fingertips. Remove from the oven, cool 10-15 min in the pan then cut into 6 equal squares or use a large round cookie cutter to cut out 6 circles.
Step 2
Set the oven to broil on high heat. Cut English muffins into halves, butter the cut side and place cut side up on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil in the center of the oven for 2-4 minutes or until the tops are golden and lightly crisp. Remove from the oven and lightly cool while preparing toppings.
Step 3
Assemble the breakfast sandwiches with the bottom bun first, then the egg, followed by a slice of cheese, 2 slices of ham, and finally the top bun.
Step 4
Wrap tightly in plastic wrap (or in aluminum foil if using for camping) then place in a large freezer-safe Ziploc bag and refrigerate up to 1 week or freeze up to 2 months.

Chef's notes
To Reheat Breakfast Sandwiches
From frozen:
remove plastic wrap, place on a paper towel and microwave 3 min on high, (turning halfway) or until warmed through.
From thawed:
thaw overnight in refrigerator, remove plastic wrap, and microwave on paper towel-lined plate 1 min or just until hot.
For camping - thaw sandwich, keep tightly wrapped in heavy-duty aluminum foil and place onto grill or over campfire for 3-5 min.
