Breakfast Club Sandwich Recipe

Introduction

The Breakfast Club Sandwich is a hearty and flavorful morning meal that combines crispy bacon, juicy sausage patties, creamy scrambled eggs, and fresh avocado layered between toasted bread. It’s a perfect way to start your day with a satisfying blend of textures and tastes.

A breakfast sandwich cut in half showing four layers: a top layer of golden scrambled eggs mixed with bright green avocado slices, below that crispy reddish-brown bacon, next a light brown sausage patty, and at the base a slice of white toasted bread with golden edges. The sandwich sits on a piece of brown parchment paper on a round white plate, with a few extra bacon pieces and two fresh, green avocado slices on the side. There is another sandwich half in the lower corner with the toasted bread side up sprinkled with green herbs and seasoning. The background is a wooden table with some parsley and a glass of bright orange juice near the plate. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 8 slices thick-cut bacon
  • 1 pound ground pork sausage
  • 4 slices mild cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 8 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 12 slices white bread, toasted
  • 1 large avocado, pitted, peeled, sliced
  • ¾ cup cowboy butter, softened, divided

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange the bacon slices in a single layer on the sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes until crispy. Transfer bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
  2. Step 2: Divide the ground pork sausage into four equal portions and shape each into patties slightly larger than your bread slices. Cook the patties in a medium skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side, until browned and fully cooked (160°F internal temperature). Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty while the last side cooks to melt the cheese. Drain on paper towels.
  3. Step 3: Wipe out the skillet with paper towels and melt butter over medium heat. Add beaten eggs, salt, and pepper. Stir gently to form large soft curds, cooking until thickened with no visible liquid. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Step 4: Spread 1 tablespoon of cowboy butter on one side of each toasted bread slice. To assemble each sandwich, place a sausage patty on a buttered slice of bread, then top with another buttered slice. Add two strips of bacon, avocado slices, and about ½ cup of scrambled eggs. Finish with a final buttered slice of bread.
  5. Step 5: Cut each sandwich into four triangles and secure with toothpicks. Repeat for remaining sandwiches and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, try adding a slice of tomato or a few spinach leaves between layers.
  • If you prefer turkey sausage, it works well as a leaner substitute.
  • Use whole grain or sourdough bread for a nuttier taste and added texture.
  • If cowboy butter isn’t available, a garlic herb butter or regular softened butter can be used instead.

Storage

Store any leftover sandwiches wrapped tightly in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a toaster oven or skillet to maintain crispiness. Scrambled eggs and sausage can be reheated separately in the microwave or on the stovetop if preferred.

How to Serve

A metal tray holds multiple breakfast sandwiches each cut in half, showing three main layers: the top and bottom toasted white bread with a golden brown crispy texture speckled with green herbs, a fluffy yellow scrambled egg layer, and a middle layer of browned sausage patty and crispy bacon strips, along with bright green slices of avocado peeking out. The sandwiches are arranged over paper lining inside the tray with extra avocado slices and bacon pieces around. The tray sits on a wooden table with scattered fresh parsley and a beige cloth nearby, and a glass of orange juice is partially visible at the bottom. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make the sausage patties ahead of time?

Yes, you can cook the sausage patties a day in advance and refrigerate them. Reheat them in a skillet or microwave before assembling the sandwiches to retain juiciness.

What is cowboy butter?

Cowboy butter is a flavorful, softened compound butter often made with spices, garlic, and herbs. It adds a rich and zesty flavor to the sandwich but can be replaced with regular or flavored softened butter if desired.

Ingredients

Scale

Bacon

  • 8 slices thick-cut bacon

Sausage

  • 1 pound ground pork sausage
  • 4 slices mild cheddar cheese

Eggs

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 8 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Assembly

  • 12 slices white bread, toasted
  • 1 large avocado, pitted, peeled, sliced
  • ¾ cup cowboy butter, softened, divided

Instructions

  1. Prepare Bacon: Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange the bacon slices in a single layer on the sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes until crispy. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
  2. Cook Sausage Patties: Divide the ground pork sausage into four equal portions and shape each into a patty slightly larger than your bread slices. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat, and cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side until browned and fully cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt. Remove patties and drain excess grease on paper towels.
  3. Make Scrambled Eggs: Wipe out the skillet and return it to medium heat. Add butter and let it melt. Pour in beaten eggs, salt, and pepper. Stir gently as eggs start to set, pulling large soft curds across the pan. Cook until eggs are thickened with no visible liquid, then remove from heat.
  4. Assemble Sandwiches: Spread 1 tablespoon of cowboy butter on one side of each toasted bread slice. On one slice (buttered side up), place a sausage patty, then top with another buttered slice of bread. Layer two pieces of cooked bacon on this bread, add sliced avocado and about ½ cup of scrambled eggs. Finish with a final slice of buttered bread. Cut into four triangles and secure each with a toothpick.
  5. Serve: Repeat for remaining sandwiches and serve immediately while warm and fresh.

Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure sausage patties reach 160°F for safe consumption.
  • Using thick-cut bacon enhances the texture and flavor in the sandwich.
  • Adjust cooking times slightly depending on your oven and stove for optimal crispiness and doneness.
  • Cowboy butter adds a rich, savory layer; if unavailable, substitute with softened herb butter or regular unsalted butter.
  • To make ahead, cook bacon and sausage patties in advance, but assemble immediately before serving to keep bread toasted and sandwiches fresh.
