Excess at its best – The Krispy Kreme Breakfast Sandwich

Share

You guys always ask me to make the craziest foods.  I am not one to let anyone down.  Today I took bacon to a new level.  I sandwiched it between a Krispy Kreme doughnut.  After creating the monster I was a little scared to eat it.  I built up some courage and took a bite.  It was awesome!!!  It created the perfect sweet and savory bite.  Despite the calories, I would totally eat one of these every morning.  However, for the sake of my stomach, I will limit these to a once a year occasion.

Yep that is a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich between a Krispy Kreme doughnut bun.

The Krispy Kreme Breakfast Sandwich

  • 1 egg
  • 2 slices of bacon
  • 1 slice of your favorite cheese
  • 1 Krispy Kreme Doughnut
  • salt and pepper to taste

To start you need a Krispy Kreme Doughnut.  I used a fresh off the line doughnut and it was a little too soft to cut.  I would recommend using one that has completely cooled.  Cut the doughnut in half.

Next fry up some bacon.  I used the microwave as I was in a hurry.  Place the two strips of bacon on a couple layers of paper towel that are arranged on a microwave safe plate.  Cover the bacon with another paper towel and place in the microwave on high for 4 minutes.  It comes out perfect every time.  Microwaves vary so you may have to decrease or increase the time by 30 seconds.

Next fry up an egg.  I like a hard yolk in my breakfast sandwiches.  Maybe it is because the golden arches as a kid, not sure.  But I usually break the egg to get a nice solid egg platform.  Cook the egg and then fold it into a square.  Place the bacon on top and then layer on the cheese.  To melt the cheese perfectly, put a couple of drops of water in the pan and then cover.  The steam will melt the cheese perfectly.

Place the egg on top of the doughnut half.

Top with the other half of the doughnut and enjoy.

Don't worry about the calories.

Enjoy!!

  • OMG! One would say it is a heart attack waiting to happen. I would try it, I am not scared of the calories or the fat. The only concern I would have is WHAT kind of doughnut we use. If one uses one that is too sweet, then it would ruin everything.

    • Jason - The Krispy Kreme Doughnut is probably the sweetest doughnut I have ever had. It did not over power the sandwich at all. That could be because the doughnut was rather small compared to the sandwich I created. The sweetness actually worked well with the bacon and eggs. Kind of creepy. The Krispy Kreme doughnut is a glazed yeast doughnut. Not sure how it would work with a cake doughnut. I think any glazed yeast doughnut would work.
