Cleaning is never anyone’s favorite chore but Hamilton Beach has taken some very thoughtful steps to make this breakfast sandwich maker easy to clean. All of the cooking surfaces are covered with a durable non-stick coating. All of the removable components are dishwasher safe too. However, it is recommended to hand wash the cooking plate and rings after each use to prolong the life of the non-stick coating.

Compact size

The compact size of this breakfast sandwich maker is another great feature. The dimensions for this unit are 5.6 H x 6.3 W x 7.3 D so it will comfortably fit on most countertops. For daily users, this is great news because it won’t take up much of your precious countertop real estate. If you don’t plan to keep it out on the counter all the time its small size allows it to easily be tucked away into the cupboard.

Not just english muffins

Your classic breakfast sandwich combines a toasted english muffin with a fluffy egg, a breakfast meat like a sausage patty, and a melted slice of American cheese. With the Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker you’re not limited to just english muffins. This mighty machine is capable of toasting croissants, bagels, biscuits, frozen pancakes, frozen waffles, and probably any other carb you can think of putting your breakfast between.

Take control of your nutrition

Healthy breakfast sandwich

Your health is important and good nutrition is the cornerstone of good health. Fast food is not known for providing top-quality ingredients or the healthiest food choices. By opting to make your breakfast sandwiches at home using this product you can control each and every ingredient that goes into your breakfast. If you have any food allergies you will get peace of mind knowing that your sandwich is safe to eat. If you’re dieting you can make a lower calorie breakfast sandwich with egg whites and spinach. Or you can ensure that all your ingredients meet any religious dietary restrictions.

Only use pre-cooked meat

The one drawback of this machine is that it won’t cook your meat for you. If you’re planning to add bacon or sausage you will need to ensure that you’ve already cooked it. Cooking bacon or sausage patties in larger batches and storing them in the fridge is recommended to make for a quick morning routine. Sliced deli meats like ham or salami are a great choice because they don’t require cooking. You can always get creative and use whatever leftover meat you have like cooked chicken or turkey too.

Tips for Best Results

Hamilton Beach recommends the following tips for the best results:

  • Always preheat the sandwich maker until the light is green
  • Ensure the egg cooking plate is pushed all the way into place to prevent leaking
  • Large eggs or smaller are recommended
  • Only use fresh egg whites and avoid store-bought egg whites
  • Do not overfill the breakfast sandwich maker
  • Do not push down on the lid. The lid is intended to hover over the top half of the sandwich to allow the eggs to rise while cooking
  • Use nonstick cooking spray on the cooking plate and rings before each use
  • Handwash the cooking plate and rings after each use
