BACON, EGG, AND CHEESE BUTTERMILK BISCUIT BREAKFAST SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a large bowl. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs, 3 to 4 minutes. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, pour in 1 cup buttermilk, and stir just until combined.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat and roll into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Use a 3-inch biscuit cutter to cut out 6 biscuits. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and brush the top of each biscuit with remaining buttermilk.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer biscuits to a wire rack to cool.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
• Combine eggs and water in a bowl and whisk vigorously until smooth; set aside. Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Swirl skillet to coat with butter; heat until just barely bubbling. Pour eggs into the center of the skillet, so butter gets pushed out to the sides.
• Cook until edges of the eggs barely start to set. Gently scramble all the way around the pan using a spatula, creating large, soft curds. Sprinkle cheese onto the eggs at this point. Continue cooking, pausing in between to allow time for the cheese to melt and eggs to firm, gently pushing and folding the eggs to form large curds, about 3 minutes total. Do not allow the eggs to cook completely or eggs will turn chewy and rubbery. Remove from heat.
• Slice biscuits in half and top bottom halves with scrambled eggs. Season with salt and pepper. Add 2 bacon pieces per biscuit, and finish with the biscuit tops. Serve immediately.

BACON, EGG, AND CHEESE SANDWICH, NEW YORK CITY DELI-STYLE

Steps:

• Slice bagel in half. Butter cut sides of each half and toast in a toaster oven or on a griddle (if using a pop-up toaster, butter halves after they are toasted).
• Meanwhile, heat a cast-iron or nonstick skillet. Add butter to skillet. Carefully crack both eggs into skillet. When whites begin to set, immediately puncture yolks.
• Top one egg with cheese and bacon. Place remaining egg, yolk-side down on top of bacon (like an egg-on-egg sandwich). Transfer eggs onto one toasted half of the bagel; top with remaining bagel half and lightly press together. Serve immediately with hot sauce or ketchup, or wrap halfway in parchment paper or aluminum foil for a portable breakfast.

HANGOVER BACON, EGG AND CHEESE PANCAKE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lay the bacon in a medium nonstick skillet, put the skillet over medium heat and cook until crisp, about 4 minutes per side; place the bacon on a paper towel. Remove all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the pan, add the pancakes and cook until they are warmed through and starting to crisp, about 1 minute per side. Sprinkle the pancakes with some salt and pepper, and transfer to a small baking sheet. Spread each pancake with a teaspoon of marmalade, and top with a slice of Swiss cheese. Keep warm in the oven.
• Crack the eggs into a small bowl, whisk with a fork until scrambled and season with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Wipe out the skillet, add the butter and melt over medium heat. Add the eggs to the center of the pan, turn off the heat and swirl the eggs until they form a thin circle and are almost cooked through, 30 seconds. Flip the egg circle into a half-circle with a spatula, transfer to a cutting board and cut in half.
• Top 1 pancake (cheese-side up) with half the bacon, half the egg and another pancake. Repeat with the remaining bacon, egg and pancake (cheese-side down).
