Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 slices of bread
- 2 large eggs
- 4 slices of bacon
- 1/2 avocado, sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by laying them out on a clean work surface. Ensure bacon, eggs, and bread are at room temperature.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Lay bacon slices flat in the skillet and cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
- In the same skillet with remaining bacon fat, crack the eggs carefully. Season each egg with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook eggs to your preferred style - sunny-side up or over-easy works best for this sandwich.
- While eggs are cooking, toast the bread slices until golden brown and crisp. You can use a toaster or toast them in the same skillet after removing the eggs.
- Slice the avocado into thin, even slices. Ensure the avocado is ripe but not overripe for the best texture.
- Assemble the sandwich by placing crispy bacon slices on one piece of toasted bread. Layer the cooked egg on top of the bacon.
- Arrange avocado slices neatly over the egg. Sprinkle additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Top with the second slice of toasted bread, press gently, and cut the sandwich diagonally for easier handling.
- Serve immediately while eggs are still warm and bacon is crisp. Enjoy your Pepper Pig Breakfast Sandwich!
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Always use room temperature ingredients for more even cooking and better flavor melding.
- Bacon Crispiness Hack: For extra crispy bacon, start in a cold skillet and gradually increase heat. This helps render fat more effectively.
- Egg Perfection: Use fresh eggs and cook them in the bacon fat for an extra layer of flavor. Aim for a slightly runny yolk for that Instagram-worthy moment.
- Avocado Selection: Choose a ripe but firm avocado. It should yield slightly to gentle pressure but not feel mushy.
- Toasting Trick: For extra flavor, lightly butter your bread before toasting for a golden, crispy exterior.
- Seasoning Secret: Don't be shy with salt and freshly ground black pepper - they elevate the entire sandwich's flavor profile.
- Serving Suggestion: Pair with a hot cup of coffee or fresh orange juice for the complete breakfast experience.
