I’m sharing our family’s absolute favourite morning hack – freezer-friendly breakfast sandwiches that my 4-year-old absolutely loves.

Let’s be honest – getting kiddos ready for school while trying to serve a wholesome breakfast can feel like juggling flaming torches sometimes.

But what if I told you that you could have warm, delicious, homemade breakfast sandwiches ready in minutes?

These sandwiches are like having a breakfast fairy godmother in your freezer!

I used to be quite skeptical about freezer sandwiches because reheating them seemed like I would lose all the flavour.

I have figured out how to freeze them properly so they are as fresh as possible when they are reheated.

Why Your Family Will Love These

  • Kids think it’s SO cool to help assemble their own “sandwich factory”

  • Customizable for picky eaters (my little one loves creating “faces” with different toppings!)
  • Healthier and more budget-friendly than drive-through breakfast

The Morning Magic (Reheating Instructions)

When breakfast time rolls around:

  1. Unwrap your sandwich
  2. Give it a new blanket (damp paper towel)
  3. Choose your warming method:
    • Microwave Magic: 1-2 minutes at 50% power, then 1-2 minutes at full power
    • Oven Magic: 20-30 minutes at 350°F (175°C), wrapped in foil
    • Air Fryer: 6 minutes at 350°F, keeps the bacon super crisy
