Keto Breakfast Sandwich Recipe
Description
The bread is made by mixing melted butter, egg, coconut flour, and baking powder, then microwaving the batter in a small bowl to form a flatbread. Once cooled, it's sliced into two thin pieces and lightly toasted in a pan. Separately, an egg is fried, optionally using an egg ring for shape.
The sandwich is assembled with the toasted bread slices enclosing a fried egg, sharp cheddar cheese, and deli ham, providing a balance of textures and savory flavors. The butter in the bread adds richness, and toasting the bread adds a slight crispness.
This sandwich is best served fresh to enjoy the warm egg and melted cheese. Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the microwave uncovered for convenience, but the bread is fresh and tender initially.
Using a slightly larger bowl for cooking the bread creates larger slices that better contain the fillings. Alternatively, making two breads instead of slicing one yields a thicker sandwich. Use olive oil spray to cook the egg and toast the bread to avoid sticking.
Ingredients
For the bread:
- 1 tablespoon butter salted
- 1 egg large
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder gluten-free if needed
For the sandwich:
- olive oil spray form
- 1 egg large
- 1 lice cheese I use sharp cheddar
- 1 lice ham deli
Instructions
Make the bread:
- Place a tablespoon of butter in a microwave-safe cereal bowl (the bottom should measure 3.5 - 4 inches). Microwave until melted, about 30 seconds. Allow to slightly cool.
- Using a fork, mix in one egg, 1 tablespoon of coconut flour, and ¼ teaspoon of baking powder. Microwave on high for 90 seconds.
- Allow the bread to cool slightly, then carefully slice it into two slices.
Cook the egg and toast the bread:
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spray it with olive oil spray. Break one egg into the skillet (use a greased egg ring or an egg pan if you want a round shape). Cook on both sides until done to your liking.
- Add the two slices of bread, lightly browning them on each side.
Assemble the sandwich:
- Place one slice of bread on a plate. Top it with a slice of cheese, a slice of ham, and a fried egg. Place the second slice of bread on top. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Use a microwave-safe bowl approximately 4 inches wide to bake larger keto bread rounds for substantial sandwich slices.
- Making two separate keto bread rounds instead of one and slicing can create a thicker sandwich with more bread.
- Store the prepared sandwich wrapped in plastic in the refrigerator for 1–2 days; reheat uncovered in the microwave.
- For round fried eggs, use an egg ring or egg pan in the skillet.
- Lightly spray the skillet with olive oil to prevent sticking when cooking egg and toasting bread.
