This simple yet satisfying dish can be prepared in minutes, making it the perfect choice for busy mornings. In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps to make a delicious breakfast egg sandwich that will start your day off right.
Ingredients
Before we dive into the recipe, here’s what you’ll need:
– 2 large eggs
– 2 slices of whole-grain bread
– 2 slices of cheese (your choice, such as cheddar, Swiss, or provolone)
– 2 slices of your favorite breakfast meat (e.g., bacon, ham, or turkey)
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Cooking spray or butter
Instructions
1. Begin by heating a non-stick skillet over medium heat. If you prefer, you can also use a griddle or a frying pan.
2. While the skillet is heating, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Once the skillet is hot, spray it with cooking spray or add a small amount of butter. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and let them sit for a moment. They should start to set around the edges.
4. Using a spatula, gently flip the eggs and cook for another minute or until the bottom is golden brown. If you prefer a sunny-side-up egg, you can cook for less time.
5. While the eggs are cooking, toast the bread slices to your desired level of crispiness.
6. Once the eggs are cooked, place them on one slice of bread. Top with a slice of cheese and the breakfast meat of your choice.
7. Place the other slice of bread on top, cheese side down, to form the sandwich.
8. Place the sandwich back in the skillet for about 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the sandwich is heated through.
9. Carefully remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it sit for a minute to let the cheese set.
10. Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately.
