Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a large mixing bowl, combine 8 large eggs, 1/4 cup of milk, 1 tablespoon of sour cream, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Beat together until well-blended.

Stir in 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.

Generously butter a 9 by 13 casserole dish.

Pour the egg mixture into the buttered casserole and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until fluffy.

Cut 6 English muffins in half and transfer them cut side up to a baking sheet.

Brush the cut sides of the muffins with melted butter.

Set the oven to broil on high heat and toast the English muffins for 2 to 4 minutes until golden and lightly crisp.

Remove the baked eggs and let cool for 10 to 15 minutes.

Cut the eggs into squares or use a round pastry cutter to cut circles.

Assemble the sandwiches by placing the bottom bun down, adding the egg, a slice of cheese, and a couple slices of ham, then cover with the top bun.

Wrap each sandwich in plastic wrap and place in a freezer-safe bag.

Freeze for 1 to 2 months.

To reheat, unwrap and place on a plate lined with a paper towel, then microwave until heated through.
