1
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip halfway through for even cooking.

2
Scramble the Eggs
In a bowl, beat the eggs with salt and black pepper. Pour the mixture into the same skillet after removing the bacon. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft, about 3-4 minutes.

3
Toast the Bread
While the eggs are cooking, toast the bagel or English muffin until golden brown.
4
Assemble the Sandwich
Spread butter on the toasted bagel or muffin. Place the cooked bacon on one half, followed by the scrambled eggs, and top with a slice of cheddar cheese. If you like, add hot sauce for a spicy kick.
5
Serve
Close the sandwich and serve immediately while warm.
