How are McDonald's Eggs Prepared?

August 25, 2023

Good question. Our breakfast menu items are all made with real eggs—they’re just prepared a little differently for each sandwich.

Round Egg:

We use a USDA Grade A cracked into an ‘egg ring’ to get that iconic round shape for our Egg McMuffin®.

Scrambled Eggs:

Our scrambled eggs are made with liquid eggs that are cooked fresh on our grill with real butter.

Folded Eggs:

Our folded eggs, like the ones on a Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit, are made with liquid eggs that are pre-cooked and folded before being flash frozen by our suppliers. Once in our kitchens, they’re prepared on the grill with real butter.

Sausage Burrito Eggs:

Our suppliers pre-cook liquid eggs with ingredients that include sausage, tomatoes, green chilies, onions and seasonings before flash freezing them to help maintain their taste.

Visit our breakfast menu to get the full list of ingredients in your favorite sandwich.
