Recipe Inspiration<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Bacon, Egg and Cheese is such a classic sandwich that we had to make a toastie out of it. On top of that, the question of whether it would be possible to cook a raw egg in a toastie kept us awake at night. And well, who doesn\u2019t need a recipe to conquer every morning! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why We Love It<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We have a thing for Sunday Brunches\u2026 lazy, neverending sleep-ins, and extra cuddle-time! We really love Sunday mornings! When cuddle time is over, we normally make ourselves a traditional Sunday Brunch, with a boiled egg, cheese, freshly baked bread, jams, croissants, orange juice\u2026 the real deal. This recipe brings us the Sunday Morning Brunches when we don\u2019t have time for a real sleep in, but still want to enjoy an energizing breakfast! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Equipment<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Normally, you fry your eggs and bacon in a pan, but we don\u2019t! We threw everything on our sandwich grill! For this toastie, here is the specific equipment that we used:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Tefal: Inicio Grill<\/strong> (Awesome for Toasties and All Grilling Needs)<\/li>
  • Tefal: Ultracompact Sandwich <\/strong>(Dedicated Toastie Maker)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    For this toastie, we recommend<\/strong> using a sandwich grill or press because it won\u2019t press the egg out. Any kind of grill that has a loose top will work best for this toastie. However, we did try making this recipe in a toastie maker as well, and even though it didn\u2019t go according to plan, we did enjoy a DELICIOUS toastie! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We have spent many hours making, and eating, toasties in our Toastie Lab kitchen. We have some awesome equipment recommendations that you can use to make your very own toasties. Check it out on our Recommended Tools page. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Down The Bread Hole<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    It might look complicated, but we have discovered the easiest way to make this breakfast toastie-sandwich. You will need an extra, third slice of bread which will have a hole cut in it to serve as a bread-frame and egg place-holder. You could try without it, but we suspect that the results will be messy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Them Eggs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Yes, we\u2019re using uncooked eggs for this breakfast toastie. Not for long though, because the grill will be perfectly capable of frying them! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We have even managed to get the runny yolk with the rest of the egg being perfectly cooked. It\u2019s an art, really. Practice makes perfect, so we recommend making this toastie many, many times to master this skill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Cheesy<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    No toastie without cheese, right?! We like to use a regular gouda on this one, but be like us and experiment with different flavors, and please do let us know if you come up with anything especially delicious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Bacon<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    And if a toastie without cheese is unthinkable, than I think you\u2019ll be on the same page when it comes to bacon and eggs, because\u2026 No eggs without bacon! We like to grill the bacon on our toastie-machine before adding them to the uncooked toastie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This is mainly because we don\u2019t want to use any extra pans, but also because it leaves that nice greasy bacon juice for the bread. AND, the grill makes perfect, crisp bacon without burning it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    B-b-b-BUTTER<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    For this toastie you have to go all in. Juicy, crispy bacon, melty, salty cheese, and creamy, rich butter. Oh yeah\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Besides just being delicious, there are a couple of reasons why you want to make sure you have enough butter at hand\u2026 The first one being, that the toastie has a bit of a fancy construction to make sure the egg doesn\u2019t just fall right out. So, in order to make sure the \u201cmiddle\u201d layer of bread doesn\u2019t slip, we added some extra butter on the edges as a form of yummy-butter-glue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Also, the toastie has some extra grilling time because of the raw egg. You want to make sure that the egg is cooked enough before you take the toastie off the grill. Therefore, it is necessary to add some butter to the tops to prevent them from burning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We haven\u2019t tried using any alternative oils or butters, but if you do and it works out well, let us know!!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
