4 bagels, split and toasted*
4 eggs
Salt and pepper
2 tbsp butter
4 slices sharp cheddar cheese*
Hot honey, extra to serve

Instructions

1
Brush bacon with hot honey and pan fry until crisp and caramelised. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate. Spread the cream cheese over the toasted bagels.
2
In a small bowl beat eggs until blended, add salt and pepper. In a medium frying pan, melt butter until foamy then add the egg mixture. Cook, maintaining a thin undisturbed layer of egg, for approximately 5 minutes.

Lay the sliced cheese over the egg, leaving on the heat until cheese is just melted. Divide the egg mixture over the bagels, add the bacon and top with remaining bagel halves.
4
Drizzle bagels with extra hot honey, to serve.

Note

*If onion and chive cream cheese is not available make your own. Mix 250 g spreadable cream cheese with 1 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp garlic powder and 1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped and loosely packed.

*Sesame bagels were used for this recipe.

*Depending on the size of the cheese slices, more may be required to cover the egg.

If hot honey is too spicy for your liking, add regular honey to taste.

Not suitable to freeze.
