Waffle Breakfast Sandwich

Step 1: Prepare the Waffles

  1. Toast the Waffles: If using frozen waffles, toast them according to the package instructions until they are golden and crispy. If using homemade waffles, make sure they are cooked and have cooled slightly to firm up.

Step 2: Cook the Eggs

  1. Heat a Skillet: Heat a little butter or oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Fry the Eggs: Crack the eggs into the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook to your preference. For a fully cooked yolk, flip the egg after the edges start to set and cook for an additional minute. For a runny yolk, cover the skillet with a lid to allow the top of the egg to steam while the bottom cooks.

Step 3: Assemble the Sandwich

  1. Layer the Ingredients: On one waffle, place a slice of cheese, followed by a slice of bacon or ham, and then the fried egg. If using, add avocado slices or spread on top of the egg.
  2. Top It Off: Place another waffle on top to complete the sandwich. Press down gently to help melt the cheese and secure the layers.

Step 4: Serve

  1. Warm It Up: If needed, you can return the assembled sandwich to the skillet on low heat for a minute or two to ensure the cheese is melted and the sandwich is heated through.
  2. Serve with Maple Syrup: Serve your waffle breakfast sandwich immediately, with maple syrup on the side for drizzling if desired.

Tips for a Perfect Waffle Breakfast Sandwich

  • Customize Your Fillings: Feel free to customize the fillings based on your preferences. You can add tomato slices, switch out the bacon for sausage, or use a different type of cheese.
  • Making It Healthier: For a healthier version, consider using whole grain or low-carb waffles, turkey bacon or lean ham, and adding vegetables like spinach or tomatoes.
  • For a Crowd: If making multiple sandwiches, you can keep the cooked components warm in an oven set to a low temperature (around 200°F or 90°C) while you finish cooking the eggs and assembling the sandwiches.

Enjoy your Waffle Breakfast Sandwich as a delicious start to your day or a special weekend brunch treat!
