Ingredients
Scale
For the Avocado Spread:
- 1 large avocado, mashed
- ½ tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt, to taste
For the Chipotle Mayo:
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 chipotle chili pepper in adobo, chopped (or substitute with sriracha or other chili sauce to taste)
For the Sandwich:
- 4 English muffins (or buns, croissants, or gluten-free alternatives), split and lightly toasted
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 breakfast sausage patties, cooked
- 4 strips bacon, cooked
- 4 eggs, fried (or scrambled, or prepared as an omelet)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Avocado Spread
- Using a small bowl, gently mash the avocado with a fork until smooth but slightly chunky.
- Mix in the lemon juice and salt to taste until well combined.
Step 2: Make the Chipotle Mayo
-
In another bowl, combine the mayonnaise and chopped chipotle chili pepper in adobo. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Step 3: Toast the Bread
-
Lightly toast the English muffins or your chosen bread option until golden brown. This step adds texture and prevents the bread from becoming soggy.
Step 4: Assemble the Sandwiches
- Spread the avocado mixture on the bottom half of each toasted muffin.
- Add a slice of cheddar cheese, followed by a cooked sausage patty and a strip of bacon.
- Top with a fried egg, then spread the chipotle mayo on the top half of the muffin.
- Place the top half on the sandwich and serve immediately.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: Prepare sausage patties and bacon in advance for quicker assembly.
- Adjust Spice: Reduce or omit chipotle for a milder sandwich.
- Customize: Add fresh greens, tomatoes, or pickled onions for extra flavor and texture.
