This Bacon, Egg, Cheese, and Bagel Breakfast Sandwich is the ultimate quick and satisfying morning meal. It combines crispy bacon, a perfectly cooked egg with melted cheese, and a toasted bagel for a savory breakfast you can enjoy on the go. It’s easy, filling, and totally customizable with your favorite type of cheese and bagel!

Ingredients:

  • 1 bagel (any flavor: plain, everything, or sesame)
  • 2 slices cooked bacon
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 slice cheese (cheddar, Swiss, American, or your choice)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (optional, for toasting)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Hot sauce or ketchup (optional, for extra flavor)

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Bacon: In a skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, flipping as needed, until crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat.
  2. Toast the Bagel: Slice the bagel in half and toast it until golden and crisp. For an extra buttery touch, spread butter on the cut sides before toasting.
  3. Cook the Egg: In the same skillet, crack the egg and cook to your preference—sunny-side-up or over-easy. Season with salt and pepper. If you like melty cheese, add a slice of cheese on top of the egg when it’s almost done and cover for 1-2 minutes to melt.
  4. Assemble the Sandwich: Place the crispy bacon on the bottom half of the toasted bagel. Top with the cheesy egg and cover with the other half of the bagel.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately, and add hot sauce or ketchup if desired for a flavorful kick.
