PRESENTATION

If you are looking to shake things up with a twist on the classic American burger, the egg burger is where you should start. I mean, really, it's a game changer. This dish takes the familiar burger concept and adds a unique touch with its cooking method—making sure the egg is both soft and creamy. Cheddar cheese adds a rich flavor, while crispy bacon gives it that perfect crunch. Pretty simple, right?

And here's the thing: you can swap the traditional bun for a portobello mushroom cap, which is a cool, veggie-friendly option. Also, you can indulge with melty tomino cheese, making the burger extra gooey and moist. This easy egg burger recipe is all about experimentation with fillings and toppings—grilled veggies, sharp cheeses, or even peppery greens to liven up the flavors. Really, it's a fun way to take simple ingredients and create something new from a dish you love.

The breakfast burger is a hit for its speed and flexibility. You can stick with just egg and cheese or turn it into a protein-packed burger by adding sausage or another egg. And look, it's versatile enough for any time—perfect as a quick breakfast sandwich or even a late-night snack. This version uses local ingredients to keep things fresh, so you might find one with grilled zucchini, spicy salami, or tangy pesto. Some call it a "morning burger" because the rich, golden egg wakes you right up.

Honestly, it's all about blending comfort with a little surprise, making this a homemade egg burger that's never boring. Whether you're after a healthy breakfast option or just eager to try something different, this burger keeps things exciting and satisfying. For sure, it's a great way to mix up your routine while enjoying a comforting, delicious meal.

How to prepare Egg burger

To make the egg burger, first clean and slice the onion 1. In a hot pan, place the bacon slices 2 and cook them over medium-low heat for 4-5 minutes. When they are nice and crispy and golden 3

remove them from the pan and let them dry on paper towels 4. Separate the egg whites from the yolks (the recipe requires 4 yolks and 5 egg whites; the leftover yolk can be used as indicated at the end of the recipe), being careful to keep each yolk separate in its own small bowl 5. Beat the 5 egg whites with an electric mixer 6

and as soon as they start to become firmer, add the salt 7. Continue until the egg whites are foamy 8. In the same pan where you cooked the bacon, place a pastry ring with a diameter of 3.5 inches 9.

Pour a tablespoon of the beaten egg white inside 10, then a yolk 11, and cover with another tablespoon of egg white 12.

Cook over medium-high heat 13 for 2 minutes on one side and 2 on the other, using a spatula to turn the egg and being careful as the pastry ring will be very hot 14. Once ready, keep the egg warm. Cut the burger bun in half and toast it in the pan on the cut side 15,

then turn it over, place the slices of cheddar 16, cover with the lid 17, and heat until the cheese has melted 18.

Now remove from the heat and fill the base of the bun with the crunchiest lettuce leaves 19, previously washed and dried, and a few rings of onion 20. Now remove the egg from the mold, using a sharp knife along the edge to facilitate the operation 21.

Also place the egg in the bun 22 and the bacon 23. Close with the other half of the bun and serve your egg burger immediately 24!

Storage

The egg burger is a dish to be consumed immediately.

You can use the leftover yolk to brush over savory pastries or sweet and savory croissants made with puff pastry, add it to a quiche filling, or simply beat it with sugar, adding a bit of liquor for a quick zabaglione.

Advice

To facilitate the egg extraction operation, you can oil the inside of the pastry ring. You can enrich the burger with a slice of oxheart tomato. If you don't like raw onion, you can season the burger with chopped chives.
