Nothing says comfort food like a warm, crispy, and savory bacon and egg sandwich. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a quick snack, this recipe brings together the timeless flavors of bacon, eggs, and toasted bread. With a few optional toppings and a dash of your favorite condiments, you can personalize this sandwich to suit your taste buds. Let’s dive into making this classic yet customizable dish!
Ingredients
4 slices of bacon
2 large eggs
4 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or your favorite type)
Butter or cooking spray
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional toppings: sliced cheese, lettuce, tomato, avocado, mayonnaise, ketchup, hot sauce, etc.
Instructions
1. Cook the Bacon
Start by heating a skillet over medium heat. Lay the bacon strips flat in the skillet, ensuring they don’t overlap. Cook the bacon until it reaches your preferred level of crispiness, flipping occasionally. Once done, remove the bacon and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess grease.
2. Cook the Eggs
Using the same skillet with the leftover bacon grease (for extra flavor), crack the eggs in. Depending on how you like your eggs, cook them fried, scrambled, or over-easy. Don’t forget to season with a pinch of salt and pepper. The bacon grease adds a smoky richness to the eggs, making them irresistibly tasty.
3. Toast the Bread
While the eggs cook, prepare your bread. You can either toast it in a toaster for convenience or use a separate skillet. If using a skillet, lightly spread butter or spray cooking oil on each slice of bread. Toast them over medium heat until golden brown and crisp.
4. Assemble the Sandwich
Now comes the fun part: building your sandwich! Take one slice of toasted bread and spread your favorite condiment on it—mayonnaise, ketchup, hot sauce, or even avocado. Layer the crispy bacon and the cooked eggs on top. If you’re feeling fancy, add optional toppings like cheese, lettuce, tomato, or sliced avocado. Top it all off with the second slice of toasted bread.
5. Cut and Serve
For a classic presentation, cut the sandwich diagonally into halves. Serve immediately while it’s warm, and enjoy the satisfying crunch of the toast paired with the savory bacon and creamy eggs.
Notes
Bread Variations: This recipe works wonderfully with sourdough, rye, or even a bagel if you want to switch things up.
Cooking Tips: If you prefer a healthier option, you can bake the bacon instead of frying it, or use turkey bacon.
Topping Ideas: Make it gourmet with caramelized onions or arugula, or keep it simple with a slice of cheddar cheese.
