McDonald’s is putting a spin on a breakfast favorite, but it won’t stick around.

Customers can get their first bites of the new Spicy McMuffin breakfast sandwiches starting Tuesday, July 8, at participating McDonald’s restaurants nationwide, the fast-food giant said.

A twist on the beloved Egg McMuffin, the limited-time sandwich is made with eggs, cheese, Canadian bacon and McDonald’s spicy pepper sauce, all on a toasted English muffin.

The new lineup also includes:

  • Spicy Sausage McMuffin
  • Spicy Sausage McMuffin with Egg

“So, whether you’re fueling up for a morning marathon of meetings or just need something delicious to kickstart your day, these breakfast sandwiches deliver big, bold flavors,” McDonald’s said.

Pricing information wasn’t immediately available.

McDonald’s recently celebrated 50 years of the Egg McMuffin, which first landed on menus in 1975, according to the restaurant’s website. Herb Peterson, a franchisee from Santa Barbara, California, created the sandwich with the idea of a to-go style eggs Benedict.

“When I watched my father introduce this idea to Ray Kroc, we could not have anticipated it would become the foundation for the renowned McDonald’s breakfast menu,” McDonald’s owner/operator and Peterson’s son, David Peterson, said at the time.

“It’s been remarkable to see people embrace this innovation over the last five decades, and now we get to share that heritage with a new generation of breakfast fans,” he said.

Spicy McMuffin breakfast sandwiches will be available for a limited time, though McDonald’s didn’t say for how long.
