Ingredients

2 Strip cooked Bacon
2 Slice Wheat Bread
2 Extra large Egg
1 Tsp Salt
1 Tsp Pepper
1 Tbsp Butter
2 Oz Cheddar Cheese
1 Tsp Pepper Or Hot Sauce

Directions

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, turning halfway through, until browned and crisp, 8–10 minutes

Meanwhile, use cutter to punch out a circle in the center of each piece of bread.

Transfer bacon to a cutting board; cut in half crosswise.

Carefully pour half of bacon drippings into a small bowl

Place 2 slices of bread in skillet and cook over medium-high until bottom sides are golden brown, about 3 minutes.

Crack an egg into each hole in bread (some of the white may pool on top of the bread).

Season eggs with salt and pepper and cook until underside is set, about 2 minutes.

Using a thin spatula (a fish spatula works best), carefully turn both pieces of bread to briefly cook second side (this helps set the whites, but the yolk should still be runny), about 1 minute

Add 1 tbsp butter to skillet and swirl skillet to distribute, encouraging some to get underneath

Carefully turn bread again.

Top one slice with half of the cheese.

Remove pan from heat and let sit about 1 minute to soften cheese

Top with half of bacon and some hot sauce.

Close up sandwich and transfer to a plate.
