Hey there, breakfast lovers! 💁♀️ Let me tell you about this absolutely divine breakfast creation that’s been making waves in my kitchen. You know those mornings when you want something that’s both comforting and fancy? Well, honey, I’ve got just the thing for you – my Crispy French Toast Breakfast Sandwich with Maple-Glazed Bacon!
Listen, I’m not usually a morning person (hello, coffee!), but this recipe gets me jumping out of bed faster than a sample sale at Nordstrom. It’s the perfect balance of sweet and savory, and trust me, your taste buds will be doing a happy dance!
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 4 thick slices of brioche bread
– 4 large eggs (2 for French toast, 2 for frying)
– 6 strips of thick-cut bacon
– 1/4 cup maple syrup
– 1/3 cup heavy cream
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 tbsp cinnamon
– Butter for cooking
– Pinch of salt
– Optional: berries for garnish
Now, let’s get cooking! 👩🍳
1. First things first, let’s make that maple-glazed bacon (because, duh, bacon makes everything better!). Lay your bacon strips on a baking sheet and brush with maple syrup. Bake at 375°F for about 15-20 minutes until crispy.
1. While the bacon’s doing its thing, whisk together 2 eggs, heavy cream, vanilla, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a shallow dish.
1. Dip each slice of brioche into the mixture, making sure it’s well-coated but not soggy (nobody likes soggy bread, am I right?).
1. Heat some butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook your French toast until golden brown on both sides.

1. In the same skillet, fry up your remaining eggs to your preferred doneness. I like mine with a slightly runny yolk because, hello, built-in sauce!
1. Now for the assembly (my favorite part!): Layer your French toast with maple-glazed bacon and top with a fried egg. Add some fresh berries on the side if you’re feeling fancy (or need to pretend this is somewhat healthy 😉).
Y’all, when that yolk breaks and mingles with the maple-glazed bacon… heaven! It’s literally like breakfast threw a party in your mouth!
This recipe serves two, but honestly, I won’t judge if you eat both portions yourself. We all have those days, right? 💁♀️
