- 2 large eggs
- 4 slices of cheddar cheese
- 4 slices of crispy bacon
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter
How to Make Cheesy Egg Burger
- Start by cooking the bacon. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Remove and let them drain on paper towels.
- In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, cooking them sunny-side up. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes.
- While the eggs are cooking, toast the sesame seed buns in the same skillet until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
- As the buns toast, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each egg during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
- To assemble, spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Layer on the crispy bacon slices, followed by the cheesy egg. Top with the other half of the bun.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your Cheesy Egg Burger with Bacon!
Tips for the Best Results
- For extra flavor, try using flavored mayonnaise, such as garlic or chipotle.
- Make sure not to overcook the eggs; you want that delicious runny yolk!
- If you prefer a firmer yolk, cook the eggs longer or flip them for a minute to cook both sides.
Easy Variations
- Swap out cheddar cheese for pepper jack or gouda for a different flavor profile.
- Add avocado slices or sautéed spinach for added nutrition.
- Replace the mayonnaise with hot sauce or aioli for a spicy kick.
What to Serve With It
- Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side.
- Crispy hash browns or home fries for extra crunch.
- A side of mixed greens with a light vinaigrette.
Storage and Reheating
This burger is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store the components separately in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat the bacon and eggs in a skillet over low heat before assembling your burger again.
