I enjoy cooking batches of food and freezing them. It makes it quick and easy for when I need to eat away from home. I love to make breakfast sandwiches and the first time I did it they turned out great. It seems like with each time I make them the muffin is soggy. I do let them cool before wrapping them up. I let them defrost over night in the fridge so we don't cook them from frozen. I been doing most egg,ham and cheese muffins. I a wondering if the water content in the ham is causing the problem. My son loves them too and I don't want to quit making them. Any tips? I like the idea of freezing them cause its not something we will eat daily.

    Freeze the ham, egg and cheese separately, and toast the muffin fresh in the toaster. If you put the blops of ham, egg and cheese on a oil sprayed cookie sheet covered with foil, you could probably remove them after they're frozen, place them in a bread baggie separated by waxed paper, and just pull them out as you use them. Nuke the sausage thingie and throw it on a freshly toasted muffin.

    If you wanted to have the muffins on hand, you could even leave those in the bag they came in and freeze them separately.

    Thanks for the suggestion. We don't normally take the breakfast sandwiches anywhere so toasting the muffins fresh will work.
