Trying NYC's BEST Bagels!

Ingredients

• 1 piece Bagel (split horizontally and lightly buttered before toasting)
• 2 slices Bacon (thick‑cut preferred)
• 1 large Egg (room temperature)
• 1 slice American Cheese (or cheddar, sliced)
• 1 tablespoon Butter (for toasting bagel and cooking egg)
• 1 pinch Salt (optional; avoid if using salty bagel)
• 1 pinch Black Pepper (optional, to taste)

Instructions

1. Slice and Toast Bagel

   Cut the bagel horizontally, spread a thin layer of butter on each half, and toast in a toaster or under a broiler until golden and slightly crisp.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: 350°F

2. Cook Bacon

   In a skillet over medium heat, lay the bacon strips flat and cook until crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess fat.

   Time: PT8M

   Temperature: medium heat

3. Whisk and Cook Egg

   In a small bowl, whisk the egg with a pinch of pepper (omit salt). Heat a small amount of butter in the same skillet over medium heat, pour in the egg, and scramble gently until just set, about 2 minutes.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: medium heat

4. Assemble Bagel Sandwich

   Place the cooked bacon on the bottom half of the toasted bagel, top with the scrambled egg, then add the cheese slice. Place the top half of the bagel on top and let the residual heat melt the cheese for about 30 seconds.

   Time: PT2M
