McDonald's Sausage Egg and Cheese Bagel Complete Information

A McDonald's Sausage Egg and Cheese Bagel costs $6.48 and carries 710 calories with 25g of protein. A seasoned pork sausage patty, folded egg and American cheese on a toasted bagel.

At 25g of protein this is the strongest breakfast sandwich on the McDonald's menu, ahead of the 480 calorie Sausage McMuffin with Egg on both protein and size. The bagel is doing part of that work and the sausage patty the rest. It is also one of the heaviest things on the breakfast board at 710 calories, which is the trade: this is a sandwich that replaces a meal rather than starting one. Pair it with a black Coffee (Small) at $2.49, or take the $6.74 Bacon, Egg & Cheese Bagel for a lighter version of the same idea.

Health Insight

At 710 calories and 1380mg of sodium, this one is best treated as an occasional order rather than an everyday one.

Lighter alternative: Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles on the same menu comes in at 550 calories. See Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles

How to Make a Sausage Egg and Cheese Bagel at Home?

Same construction as the bacon bagel with a sausage patty in place of the rashers, which makes it simpler: one thing to cook rather than a pan of bacon. The restaurant version is $6.48.

Tips

  • Make the patty bagel sized. A muffin sized patty leaves the first and last bites as plain bread.
  • Cheese under the patty. It is the melt that holds a bagel sandwich together.
  • Toast the bagel hard; this is the heaviest filling on the breakfast menu and needs the structure.

Variations

  • Swap sausage for bacon for the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Bagel at $6.74.
  • Swap it for steak for the Steak, Egg & Cheese Bagel at $7.64.
  • Add a slice of tomato, which the bagel carries better than the softer breads do.

Serve hot with Hash Browns and coffee. The restaurant version is $6.48.
