This satisfying morning sandwich combines crispy, smoky bacon, a perfectly cooked egg, and melty cheddar cheese, all nestled between two slices of your favorite toasted bread, English muffin, or bagel. A touch of butter and a slather of creamy mayonnaise add extra indulgence, while a hint of salt and pepper elevates the flavors. Ready in just 15 minutes, this easy breakfast recipe is perfect for busy mornings or a comforting weekend treat. Whether you’re craving a quick meal on the go or a warm, homemade start to your day, this bacon and egg sandwich ticks all the boxes for flavor, simplicity, and pure breakfast bliss.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 4-5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove the bacon and set it aside on a paper towel to drain excess grease.
In the same skillet, melt 1 teaspoon of butter over medium-low heat. Crack the egg into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolk, and cook until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the egg if you prefer it over hard, and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Season the egg with salt and pepper, then remove it from the skillet and set it aside.
Toast the bread slices (or English muffin/bagel) until golden brown. If desired, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of each slice for added flavor.
Assemble the sandwich by layering one slice of bread, a slice of cheese, the fried egg, bacon slices, and then the second slice of bread.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Quick Bacon Egg Wich!
