Ingredients
Scale
Bagel and Spread
- 1 Everything Bagel
- ½ tablespoon Salted Butter
- ½ large Avocado
- Kosher Salt, to taste
- 1 tablespoon Creamy Sriracha Sauce
Egg and Cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 slice Cheddar Cheese
- 1 slice American Cheese
Meat
- 2 slices Honey Ham
Instructions
- Toast the Bagel: Begin by toasting the everything bagel to your desired level of crispness and warmth.
- Heat Butter in Skillet: While the bagel is toasting, melt ½ tablespoon of salted butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cook the Eggs: Crack the 2 large eggs into the skillet and sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt. Let the edges set and the whites begin to turn opaque before carefully flipping the eggs. Reduce the heat to medium or medium-low to gently cook the other side.
- Add Cheese to Eggs: Place one slice each of cheddar and American cheese on top of the eggs, stacking the cheeses so they’ll melt together nicely.
- Warm the Ham: On the other side of the skillet, add the honey ham slices to warm them through and lightly brown.
- Assemble Eggs and Ham: Once warmed, place the ham slices on top of the cheese-topped eggs. Then turn off the heat to prevent overcooking.
- Prepare Bagel Bottom: When the bagel is toasted, spread and mash the avocado on the bottom half. Lightly sprinkle with salt for seasoning.
- Build the Sandwich: Layer the egg, cheese, and ham stack on top of the avocado-spread bagel bottom.
- Add Sauce and Close Sandwich: Spread creamy sriracha sauce inside the top half of the bagel and close the sandwich.
- Serve or Store: Serve immediately while warm or wrap in tinfoil to enjoy later.
Notes
- Use a nonstick skillet to easily cook and flip the eggs without breaking them.
- Adjust sriracha sauce quantity based on your preferred spice level.
- To make the sandwich ahead, wrap tightly in foil and reheat in the oven for 10 minutes at 350°F.
- Substitute honey ham with turkey or bacon if desired.
- For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free bagel.
