Ingredients
Bacon and Glaze
- 4 slices bacon
- 2 tbsp strawberry jam
Sandwich Components
- 2 eggs
- 2 brioche buns, toasted
- 2 oz Brie cheese, sliced
- Handful of arugula
- Butter, for cooking eggs
Instructions
- Cook Bacon: Place the bacon slices in a cold skillet and cook over medium heat until crisp and browned. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels.
- Glaze Bacon: Brush each slice of cooked bacon generously with strawberry jam. Return the glazed bacon to the skillet over low heat for about 1-2 minutes to warm and set the glaze without burning.
- Fry Eggs: In the same skillet, add a small amount of butter over medium heat. Crack in the eggs and cook to your desired doneness, whether sunny side up, over easy, or fully cooked through.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Place a toasted brioche bun bottom on a plate. Layer on the fried egg, slices of Brie cheese, a handful of fresh arugula, and the strawberry-glazed bacon. Top with the remaining bun.
- Serve: Serve the breakfast sandwiches immediately while the Brie is warm and slightly melty for the best flavor experience.
Notes
- You can substitute sourdough bread for brioche if preferred, for a different texture and flavor.
- Brie cheese melts best when warm, so assemble sandwiches just before serving.
- Adjust cooking times for eggs according to your preferred doneness.
- For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and consider adding grilled mushrooms or avocado as a substitute.
