Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Bagel Recipe

American · Main course · 15 min total

A classic breakfast sandwich featuring crispy bacon, a perfectly fried egg, and melted cheese on a toasted bagel. This recipe delivers a satisfying, savory start to your day.

Ingredients

• 1 everything bagel, split
• 2 slices bacon
• 1 large egg
• 1 slice cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Pour off all but 1 teaspoon of bacon fat from the skillet.
2. Toast the bagel halves in a toaster or under the broiler until golden. Spread butter on the cut sides.
3. Crack the egg into the skillet with the reserved bacon fat. Cook over medium heat until the white is set but the yolk is still runny, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. If desired, flip and cook 30 seconds more for over-easy.
4. Place the cheese slice on the bottom half of the bagel. Top with the cooked egg and bacon slices. Close with the top bagel half. Serve immediately.

Tips

• For a less runny yolk, cook the egg to your preferred doneness.
• Substitute with your favorite cheese like American or Swiss.
• Add avocado slices or hot sauce for extra flavor.
