McDonald's Sausage Biscuit with Egg Complete Information

A McDonald's Sausage Biscuit with Egg costs $5.49 and carries 530 calories with 18g of protein. A sausage patty and a folded egg on a warm buttermilk biscuit brushed with butter.

The egg here is a folded patty rather than the round cracked egg used on the McMuffin line, which is the visible difference between the two breakfast families. Against the $4.09 Sausage Biscuit it lifts protein from 11g to 18g, which makes this one of the better protein orders on the breakfast menu. At 530 calories it is also among the heaviest sandwiches on it, because the buttermilk biscuit carries real butter through every layer. The meal version at $8.69 bundles Hash Browns and a drink. Pair it with a black Coffee (Small) at $2.49, or compare it against the Sausage McMuffin with Egg at $4.99 for the lighter muffin build.

Health Insight

At 530 calories and 1190mg of sodium, this one is best treated as an occasional order rather than an everyday one.

Lighter alternative: Sausage McMuffin on the same menu comes in at 400 calories. See Sausage McMuffin

How to Make a Sausage Biscuit with Egg at Home?

Two techniques in one sandwich: a proper layered buttermilk biscuit and a folded egg. The folded egg is the part people get wrong, because it is not an omelette and not a fried egg. The restaurant version is $5.49.

Tips

  • Low heat for the folded egg. High heat browns it and the restaurant version has no colour on it at all.
  • Fold the egg to the size of the biscuit, not the pan. Any overhang falls out on the first bite.
  • Sausage under the egg, so the biscuit takes the fat rather than the egg sliding on it.

Variations

  • Drop the egg for the plain Sausage Biscuit at $4.09.
  • Swap the biscuit for an English muffin and you have a Sausage McMuffin with Egg, $4.99 at the counter.
  • Add cheese, which this sandwich does not carry as standard.

Serve hot with Hash Browns. The restaurant sandwich is $5.49 and the meal $8.69.

Sausage Biscuit with Egg Questions

How much is a Sausage Biscuit with Egg?

It is $5.49 at a typical US restaurant, a median from live listings with the range shown above. The meal version with Hash Browns and a drink is $8.69.

How many calories in a Sausage Biscuit with Egg?

530 calories with 18g of protein. The plain Sausage Biscuit is 460 calories with 11g, so the egg adds substantially more protein than calories.

Is the egg the same as in an Egg McMuffin?

No. The biscuit sandwiches use a folded egg patty, while the McMuffin line uses a whole shell egg cracked into a ring in the restaurant. The round shape is the giveaway on the McMuffin versions.

Which breakfast sandwich has the most protein?

The Sausage McMuffin with Egg at 21g leads, and this one follows at 18g. The Egg McMuffin carries 17g at far fewer calories, so it wins on ratio. The breakfast menu page ranks them all.

Can I get it with cheese?

Most restaurants will add a slice for a charge, though it is not part of the standard build. The Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit is the version McDonald’s sells with cheese included as standard.
