How to Make Fried Egg Sandwiches

  1. Spread 1 tablespoon of honey mustard on one side of each slice of bread.
  2. Cook 4 slices of bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy (about 6-8 minutes).
  3. Remove bacon with tongs and drain on paper towels. Crumble and set aside.
  4. Pour out bacon grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the skillet.
  5. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Heat over medium-high heat until melted and shimmering.
  6. Crack 2 large eggs directly into the hot skillet.
  7. Cook eggs to your desired doneness (about 3-4 minutes for runny yolks, longer for firmer yolks), gently flipping once halfway through.
  8. Season eggs with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Using a spatula, carefully transfer each cooked egg onto a slice of honey mustard-spread toast.
  10. Evenly distribute the crumbled bacon over the eggs.
  11. Top each egg with the remaining slice of toast to create a sandwich.
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Southern-style fried egg sandwich!
