Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk or cream
- 1 teaspoon chipotle powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Sandwich Components
- 4 English muffins or sandwich buns, split and toasted
- 4 slices crispy bacon
- 1 avocado, sliced
Chipotle Mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon chipotle in adobo sauce (or more for extra heat)
Cooking Fettling
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
- Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, chipotle powder, salt, and pepper until well combined and smooth.
- Scramble the Eggs: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt a little butter or warm a bit of oil. Pour in the egg mixture and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are softly scrambled and cooked through but still moist. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Make the Chipotle Mayo: In a small bowl, blend the mayonnaise and chipotle in adobo sauce thoroughly. Adjust the amount of chipotle sauce if you prefer more heat.
- Toast the Buns: Split and toast the English muffins or sandwich buns until golden brown and crisp to add texture to your sandwich.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Spread a generous layer of chipotle mayo on the bottom halves of the toasted buns. Top each with a portion of the soft scrambled eggs, then lay a slice of crispy bacon and a few slices of fresh avocado.
- Finish and Serve: Place the top halves of the buns on each sandwich and serve immediately while warm for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- For extra spice, increase the amount of chipotle in adobo sauce in the mayo.
- You can substitute turkey bacon for a leaner option.
- Use gluten-free buns if you need a gluten-free breakfast sandwich.
- To make ahead, scramble the eggs and prepare chipotle mayo in advance; assemble sandwiches just before serving.
- Avocado adds creaminess and balances the smoky heat from chipotle powder and bacon.
