Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Cook the Meat: If you’re using beef , cook it in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. For sausage patties, cook until browned and fully cooked through. Place them on a paper towel to drain excess grease.
Toast the Bread: Lightly butter your bread, croissant, or sandwich roll. Toast in a skillet or toaster until golden brown.
Prep the Cheese: Unwrap your cheese slices and have them ready for assembly.
Step 2: Cook the Eggs
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil.
Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook them to your liking—sunny side up, over easy, or scrambled. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper for added flavor.
Step 3: Assemble the Sandwich
Place the bottom half of your toasted bread on a plate.
Layer on the cooked meat, followed by the hot egg.
Add a slice of cheese on top so it begins to melt slightly.
If you’re adding vegetables or sauces, layer them on before finishing with the top piece of bread.
Step 4: Prepare the Hash Browns
Heat a skillet with a small amount of oil and cook the hash browns until crispy and golden brown on both sides.
Season with a pinch of salt for that classic taste.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Plate your breakfast sandwich alongside the crispy hash browns.
Pair with a fresh cup of coffee, orange juice, or your favorite morning beverage.
