Ingredients

  • 2 slices bacon
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 whole bagel sliced
  • 1 tablespoon cream cheese
  • 1 slice cheddar cheese
  • 2 slices ham

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat a skillet over medium and add the bacon. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown. Flip over and cook until golden, or another 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to cool.
  • Remove the bacon grease and wipe the pan clean. Add the butter to the pan and warm over medium low. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, salt, and pepper well with a fork. Pour into the pan and cook until the bottom is set, then gently fold the eggs over low heat, cooking just until they are mostly set. Remove from the heat.
  • Cut the bagel in half and spread the cream cheese evenly over each slice. On the bottom half, add the slice of cheese, then the scrambled eggs, bacon, and ham.
  • Place on a small baking sheet or inside a small cast iron skillet and broil for about 2 minutes to melt the cheese and toast the bagel.
  • Remove from the broiler and add the bagel top. Enjoy!
