Method

Cooking the Bacon

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the slices of bacon. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until crispy. Once done, remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

Cooking the Egg

  1. 2

    Fry the Egg

    In the same skillet, you can use the bacon fat for added flavor or wipe the skillet clean and add butter. Heat it over medium-low heat. Crack the egg into the skillet and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Cook until the white is set but the yolk is still runny, about 3-4 minutes. For an overhard egg, flip the egg and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the croissant in half. On the bottom half, place the cooked bacon slices, followed by the American cheese slice. Top with the fried egg. Place the top half of the croissant over the egg to complete your sandwich.

Serving

  1. 4

    Serve

    Serve the bacon sandwich warm and enjoy! You can pair it with a side of fruit or a cup of coffee for a complete breakfast.
