About a month ago, I got wind of the Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker and thought it was the best idea ever. I reached out to Hamilton Beach to see if I could review it for So, How’s It Taste. Luckily they chose me as one of their breakfast maker brand ambassadors! I talked about this machine for weeks at work. You would have thought I’d won the lottery! (Psst…there’s a chance for you to win, too!)
So, how’s it taste?
I brought the Breakfast Sandwich Maker to work to put it to the test. English muffins, cheese, butter, sliced ham, and eggs. We made a build-your-own-breakfast bar. The machine is so compact, it was perfect for our tiny work kitchen. It would also be great for back-to-school since it’s doesn’t take up much counter space and in five minutes you can have a hearty sandwich. Much better than getting out a skillet to cook the egg, using the toaster oven, and then trying to time it all to be ready at the same time.
Be sure to check out the entire post for a fun video and a chance to win your own Breakfast Sandwich Maker!
It’s very easy and quick, plus the possibilities of sandwich combos are endless. I tried English muffins, biscuits, and Bagel Thins. I found English muffins work perfectly. I had to trim the Bagel Thins and I don’t think a regular bagel would fit. The biscuit worked pretty well, but mine weren’t quite big enough, so they got swallowed up by the egg.
You start by putting your bottom bread in the first ring, then add your toppings. I like to add cheese and then a meat like sliced deli ham or turkey sausage. A great tip for the cheese is to tear it in half so it fits better on the bread. Otherwise it drips over the side and gets messy. The meat has to be already cooked when you add it, too.
Now you flip the next panel down and crack your egg right into the maker. Yep, right in it! You could also scramble the egg first and pour it in, use egg beaters, or egg whites. You can make this sandwich really decadent or keep it healthy.
Top the egg with your bread and lower the maker lid. Now it’s only a five-minute wait until breakfast!
The possibilities are endless with how many sandwiches you can make. There’s a recipe that comes with the maker using frozen pancakes as the bread! You could also use this for some awesome savory or sweet sandwiches. From eggs benedict and mini pizzas to grilled cheese and a warm chocolate croissant, find more recipes from Hamilton Beach.
I made a video to show how easy it is to use the Breakfast Sandwich Maker. I hope you enjoy it. I had a lot of fun making it and apparently I’m quite the hand-talker!
Bonus! The awesome people at Hamilton Beach want you to enjoy the Breakfast Sandwich Maker, too!

Would love this for my breakfast eating husband. Our own Egg Sandwiches are a constant here. We have even made them with smoky links! 🙂
My first sandwich would definitely be a grilled Bacon, Egg, and Cheese sandwich — yum!
That is so cool!! I would use candied bacon, white cheddar egg and biscuit if it was a splurge day… And turkey bacon or sausage, egg white and monteray jack on English muffin for my healthy days!
I think I’d have to go with spinach, feta, tomato, and turkey sausage. Yum!
That is ADORABLE. I’d go with egg, havarti cheese and bacon on sandwich thins 🙂
Egg, ham and cheese – simple but so good!
Ok…this is sooo cute! I want it! I would make healthy sandwiches (or try anyway) consisting of English muffins, egg whites, Canadian bacon, and maybe some cheese. I also love the “Bring it to your office” idea.
I also just tweeted this! 😉
COOL! I want one! I would make a BLTE sandwich, my new obsession!
I would make egg, turkey bacon, spinach and some cheese. These all sound so delicious!! I want one so bad.
How cute is this thing! I am a sucker for kitchen gadgets! I would make egg, bacon, smoked provolone and avacado!
I still work, but my husband is retired. But crazy me still thinks I need to feed him breakfast before I go out the door. This would be a God send at my house. I would make a English Muffin, topped with Swiss cheese, turkey and alfalfa sprouts and scrambled eggs. Now I am hungry, and no food to be found anywhere. 🙁
I would make a veggie sandwich and then maybe something sweet, like with bananas and nutella and cheese.
I would make my own egg mcmuffin, egg, ham and cheese! Everyone in my house loves them and most morning there is just not enough time to make them.
This is a great idea. I would make a cheddar cheese and turkey sandwich with tomato. Thank you
I love breakfast sandwiches – I would try bacon, egg, cheese, avocado, and tomato on an English muffin 🙂
I would love to make an egg bacon and cheese sandwich on french toast!

I would make the good old standard of ham, cheese and egg on english muffin.

I would make an egg mcmuffin, would definitely save me money instead of going to get fast food!
Yum! My husband’s favorite thing is one of those mini bagels topped with cheese, egg, and a veggie sausage patty. I’d like to experiment. I’m thinking salsa and eggs on an english muffin would be tasty!
This would be a hit at my house! I would make egg and sausage, with cream cheese, jalapenos, and a touch of raspberry jam!
I tweeted!

Looks like a fun gadget! I’d make some kind of caprese grilled cheese sandwich, I think. Can’t get enough tomato-mozz-basil this time of year! Thanks for sharing!
I’d make a sausage and cheese muffin.
What fun! I’d make a ham, swiss, and egg sandwich – on a biscuit, of course!
What a fun idea. I would make egg, cheese, spinach and roasted red pepper on an English muffin.

I would make a healthier, delicious english muffin sandwich with egg white, bacon, spinach, and white cheddar or provolone cheese. Yummm!!! Plus the machine would eliminate all the clean up from normal breakfast sandwich making!
I would bacon, egg and cheese
What a cool (and adorably cute) appliance! Looking through the recipes posted on the Hamilton Beach website, I think I’d want to try the Herb Goat Cheese, Spinach and Red Pepper Egg Muffin. Thanks for hosting this giveaway!
I tweeted the giveaway! https://twitter.com/AyeAyeOnTheRun/status/373495577717121024
How about bagel-ham-egg-cheese-tomato? Sounds good to me! Thanks. This looks like a fun and handy thing to have.

Hey Leah, What an awesome little sandwich maker! OK, my sammy would be an organic farm egg from Foggy Hollow, Kenny’s aged cheddar cheese, some free ranged heritage Wedge Oak breakfast sausage, and slices of Provence sour dough bread. Oh yum!
