I was living in England, quite a few years ago, and was introduced to the wonder that is the Full English Breakfast. There were eggs and sausages, bacon, mushrooms and tomatoes, toast and lovely baked beans in a tomato sauce. With this hearty of a breakfast, we definitely weren’t hungry for lunch.
We wanted to continue enjoying this satisfying meal at home, which is why I’ve made it into an easy, electric skillet recipe.
Ingredients
You can see why this dish is so popular in England. It is tasty, filling and actually quite simple to make at home. You can either use canned beans in tomato sauce from the grocery store or try our delicious homemade recipe here. The Full English is typically served with coffee or tea to top it all off.
- bread - pick any kind but white is a classic
- vegetable oil - or canola or avocado oil
- breakfast sausages
- raw bacon strips
- button mushrooms
- tomatoes
- baked beans in tomato sauce - canned or homemade
- eggs
If you plan on having guests or have a large family, you can easily adjust the serving size. I like to use a 16” electric skillet so that I can fit everything in at once. If you have a smaller skillet, you may have to cook it in batches.
How to Make it
- Toast bread. Preheat electric skillet to 300ºF. Toast the bread, cut them diagonally and reserve.
- Cook. Grease the electric skillet with a bit of oil and add the sausages, bacon, mushrooms and tomatoes. Cook for 10 minutes (until bacon and sausages are fully cooked), flipping them occasionally. Reserve.
- Heat beans. Add the beans in tomato sauce to one corner of the skillet (just to heat them through). Reserve.
- Cook eggs. Lastly, crack the eggs into the skillet and cook, covered, for 5 minutes – or until desired doneness.
- Serve. Serve all together with the toasted bread and some tea if desired.
How to Store Leftovers
If it's not devoured immediately, you can store leftovers in a covered container in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days. The eggs should only be refrigerated for 1 to 2 days.
