Breakfast BLT Sandwich
Description
The Breakfast BLT Sandwich is constructed with multiple slices of bread toasted to a golden brown and spread with mayonnaise for moisture. Crispy bacon is baked on a rack to circulate heat, ensuring even cooking without additional grease. Eggs are sautéed with some olive oil and cooked lightly so the whites are set but yolks remain juicy. Fresh avocado slices and ripe tomato provide creaminess and acidity, while green leaf lettuce adds a crisp, refreshing textural contrast. The sandwich is assembled in two halves, each layered with complementary ingredients, then combined and secured with a toothpick to hold the filling.
This sandwich is hearty with a range of textures and flavors ideal for breakfast or brunch, satisfying with both protein and fresh produce.
Ingredients
- 8 lices bread
- 12 oz Bacon
- 4 egg
- 1 avocado pitted and sliced
- 1 tomato sliced or sliced baby tomatoes, large
- 4 green lettuce leaves
- mayonnaise or your favorite sandwich spread
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Line a rimmed cookie sheet with foil. Line a rack with bacon and place the rack over the lined cookie sheet.
- Bake at 400˚F for 20 minutes. The rack allows for heat to circulate around the bacon, but I've made it without the rack and it was still great!
- Saute your eggs over medium heat with 1/2 Tbsp olive oil. Lightly season with S&P. I left the yolk untouched and didn't flip them. I did put the lid on for 30 seconds in the end so the whites would be fully cooked. The yolk was still juicy.
- Toast both sides of your bread until golden (we did this over a skillet with a little butter)
- Spread mayo on one side of each bread slice.
- One one half, add bacon, and egg. On the second half, add lettuce, avocados, tomatoes and sprinkle lightly with S&P. Sandwich the two halves together and skewer with a toothpick for effect :) Seriously this sandwich is awesome.
