English Muffins

Bacon Jam

Method

Preparation of Bacon Jam

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove bacon and let it cool on a paper towel-lined plate.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Onion

    In the same skillet, discard excess bacon fat, leaving about 1-2 tablespoons. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients for Jam

    Chop the cooled bacon and add it back to the skillet with the sautéed onions. Stir in brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, black pepper, and salt.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Jam

    Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 15-20 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally. Once thickened, remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Assembling the Muffin

  1. 5

    Toast the English Muffins

    Split the English muffins in half and toast them until golden brown, either in a toaster or on a skillet.

  2. 6

    Spread Cream Cheese

    Spread about 2 tablespoons of cream cheese on each toasted muffin half.

  3. 7

    Top with Bacon Jam

    Spoon the bacon jam generously over the cream cheese on each muffin half, distributing evenly.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your delicious English muffin with cream cheese and bacon jam.
