How to Make Bacon Egg And Spinach Breakfast Rolls

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cut a circular slice from the top of each roll and reserve the caps.
  3. Scoop out the inside of the rolls, leaving a 1/4-inch thick shell.
  4. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add 5 oz (140g) fresh spinach and cook for 1 minute. Drain well and immediately plunge into ice water to stop cooking. Squeeze out excess water.
  5. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté for 1 minute.
  6. Cook 4 slices bacon until crispy. Crumble and set aside.
  7. If using, finely chop 1/4 cup onion and sauté with the bacon until tender.
  8. Stir in 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce into the bacon and onion mixture.
  9. Divide the spinach mixture evenly among the prepared rolls.
  10. Top the spinach with the bacon and BBQ sauce mixture.
  11. Crack one large egg into each roll.
  12. Sprinkle 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese over each egg.
  13. Replace the reserved roll caps.
  14. Wrap each roll individually in aluminum foil.
  15. Place the wrapped rolls on a baking sheet.
  16. Bake for 15 minutes.
  17. Let stand for 5 minutes before removing the foil. Serve immediately.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
