How to make an Egg McMuffin at home, according to McDonald's

What's your go-to breakfast? If you're like millions of Americans, you may have been grabbing an Egg McMuffin every morning at your nearest McDonald's drive-through, perhaps accompanied by one of those strangely tasty hash brown bricks and, of course, a cup of takeout coffee (disappointingly low in caffeine as it is). Well, under current circumstances, that breakfast may be a little harder to come by. Yes, McDonald's drive-thrus are still open, but the all-day breakfast is no longer being offered, and it's just a little harder to be up and out of the house bright and early when you've no longer got an office to go to. Sure, there's always food delivery, but in uncertain times you maybe don't always want to shell out delivery fees and tips that can more than quadruple the cost of your breakfast.

Many McMuffin fans have been going the DIY route and sharing on social media their efforts to recreate McDonald's signature breakfast dish. Well, DIY-ers, not to throw any shade, but McDonald's seemingly took pity on those of you who weren't quite nailing it. McDonald's UK — where all of its stores are closed and no takeout available — took the extraordinary step of sharing their secret recipe with the Daily Mail.
