How To Make Your Own Breakfast 'Tacos' At McDonald's

Creating your own breakfast tacos at McDonald's is a fun and simple way to customize your meal. Start by ordering a few essential items: a Sausage McMuffin, a hash brown, and a side of scrambled eggs. Once you have your ingredients, it's time to assemble your taco. Begin by removing the muffin top from the Sausage McMuffin, which will serve as your taco 'shell.' Next, layer the scrambled eggs on top of the sausage patty, providing a soft and fluffy texture to complement the savory sausage. Break the hash brown into smaller pieces and add them on top for a crispy element. The mix of textures and flavors offers a satisfying experience. For an extra kick, consider adding a packet of hot sauce or ketchup, both of which are readily available at McDonald's. If you're craving more variety, you can also add cheese or bacon from another menu item. This personalized breakfast taco is a creative and delicious way to enjoy the classic flavors of McDonald's breakfast in a new format, providing a hearty and flavorful start to your day.

Tips for assembling McDonald's breakfast 'tacos'

While these breakfast tacos are undeniably tasty, they can be tricky to put together and eat, particularly in a car or at a McDonald's table. To start (and following the viral hack), place the hotcake shells in the plastic lid of a Big Breakfast container, arranging them in a row and folding them like taco shells for added stability. When it comes to layering your fillings, you can choose your preferred order, but beginning with a solid base of sliced sausage patty before adding eggs and hash browns might be beneficial.

Regarding the syrup (or ketchup), you have the option to either drizzle it over your tacos or dip them into your preferred sauce. Pouring the sauce on top may provide the most even coverage, while dipping can help avoid a sticky situation. Dipping also helps prevent syrup from spilling out while you enjoy your makeshift taco breakfast.

What about that extra biscuit and butter? That's entirely up to you; you could crumble the biscuits on top of your tacos for a crouton-like effect, or save them for a post-breakfast treat. There’s really no wrong way to enjoy this clever McDonald's hack. And if pancake tacos aren’t your style, you can always whip up your own hash brown sandwich—just don’t hold your breath waiting for McDonald's to add it to their menu anytime soon.
