Yield Makes 1

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 everything bagel, or other bagel of choice
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more for buttering bagel
2 large eggs
1 thin slice cheese, such as American or cheddar
2 to 3 slices cooked bacon
Hot sauce and/or ketchup, for serving

Steps:

  • Slice bagel in half. Butter cut sides of each half and toast in a toaster oven or on a griddle (if using a pop-up toaster, butter halves after they are toasted).
  • Meanwhile, heat a cast-iron or nonstick skillet. Add butter to skillet. Carefully crack both eggs into skillet. When whites begin to set, immediately puncture yolks.
  • Top one egg with cheese and bacon. Place remaining egg, yolk-side down on top of bacon (like an egg-on-egg sandwich). Transfer eggs onto one toasted half of the bagel; top with remaining bagel half and lightly press together. Serve immediately with hot sauce or ketchup, or wrap halfway in parchment paper or aluminum foil for a portable breakfast.
