Egg In The Hole Bacon Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a splash of oil in a large, non-stick frying pan. Fry the bacon until crispy, then put on a plate covered with foil to keep warm.
• Using a cookie cutter, cut a hole in 1 slice of bread, then spread mayonnaise on one side of both slices. Fry the bread in the same pan. When browned on one side, flip both over and crack the egg into the hole. Fry for 2-3 mins, then turn down the heat and cover the pan until the white of the egg is set but the yolk is still runny. Remove everything from the pan.
• Spread the non-egg slice with the sauce, add the bacon, then top with the egg slice. Halve and tuck in.

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, turning halfway through, until browned and crisp, 8-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, use cutter to punch out a circle in the center of each piece of bread (save for snacking, now or later).
• Transfer bacon to a cutting board; cut in half crosswise. Carefully pour half of bacon drippings into a small bowl. Place 2 slices of bread in skillet and cook over medium-high until bottom sides are golden brown, about 3 minutes.
• Crack an egg into each hole in bread (some of the white may pool on top of the bread). Season eggs with salt and pepper and cook until underside is set, about 2 minutes. Using a thin spatula (a fish spatula works best), carefully turn both pieces of bread to briefly cook second side (this helps set the whites, but the yolk should still be runny), about 1 minute. Add 1 Tbsp. butter to skillet and swirl skillet to distribute, encouraging some to get underneath. Carefully turn bread again. Top one slice with half of the cheese. Remove pan from heat and let sit about 1 minute to soften cheese. Top with half of bacon and some hot sauce. Close up sandwich and transfer to a plate. Repeat process with remaining bacon drippings, bread, eggs, butter, bacon, and cheese and more hot sauce to make another sandwich.

Steps:

• Using a biscuit cutter or round cookie cutter, cut out center of 1 slice of bread (discard center or save for another use). Spread mayonnaise on 1 side of bread slices. In a large skillet coated with cooking spray, lightly toast cutout slice, mayonnaise side down, over medium-low heat. Flip slice; crack an egg into center. Add remaining bread slice mayonnaise side down, to skillet; layer with cheese and bacon. , Cook, covered, until egg white is set, yolk is soft-set and cheese begins to melt. If needed, flip slice with egg to finish cooking. To assemble sandwich, use solid slice as bottom and cutout slice as top.

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the bacon until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain; when cool enough to handle, crumble.
• Add the butter to the hot pan to melt with the rendered bacon fat; set aside.
• Cut a piece from the center of each slice of bread using a 2 1/2-inch round or other decorative 2 1/2-inch cookie cutter (star, flower, heart). Brush the slices and cutouts with the butter-bacon fat mixture and transfer them to a plate.
• Toast 2 slices of bread and 2 cutouts in the skillet over medium heat until browned on one side, about 1 minute. Crack an egg into each hole and sprinkle each toast with 1 tablespoon of the Parmesan; cook 2 minutes. Flip the slices and cutouts, season with salt and pepper and cook 2 minutes for a runny yolk or slightly longer for a set egg. Repeat with the remaining bread slices, cutouts, eggs and Parmesan.
• Transfer each egg-in-the-hole to a plate and sprinkle with crumbled bacon. Serve with the toasted cutouts, for dipping in the yolk.

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, flipping, until browned and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate (reserve the skillet).
• Meanwhile, use a 2 1/2- to 3-inch star cookie cutter to cut out the center of each slice of bread. Reserve the stars.
• Wipe out the skillet; add 1 tablespoon butter and melt over medium heat. Add 2 bread slices and 2 stars to the skillet and cook until golden brown on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the bread and stars and crack 1 egg directly into each of the cutout centers. Season the eggs with salt, then sprinkle each star with 1 tablespoon cheese. Cover the skillet and cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to plates. Wipe out the skillet; add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and repeat to make 2 more eggs-in-a-hole.
• Serve the eggs-in-a-hole, cheesy stars and bacon with the strawberries.

Steps:

• In a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside. Drain the grease from the skillet but do not clean. When cool enough to handle, tear the bacon slices in half.
• Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise and hot sauce to taste in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, cut a hole in the center of each Texas toast slice.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the bacon skillet and add 2 of the Texas toast slices. Toast the bread slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Crack an egg into the hole in each piece of toast and sprinkle the eggs with salt and pepper. Cook the eggs until set on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a spatula, carefully flip the toast with the egg, season the other side and spread with the mayonnaise mixture. Top each with a slice of cheese to slightly melt and cook until the egg is the desired doneness. Remove to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining butter, toast, eggs, mayo mixture and cheese.
• To build the sandwiches, divide the bacon between 2 of the egg-in-a-hole toast pieces, on top of the cheese. Top each with some tomato slices and lettuce, then top with a remaining egg-in-a-hole toast piece. Serve immediately or wrap in foil to keep warm.
