Bacon, Egg and Cheese Bagels image

Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

24 slices thick-cut bacon
1/2 cup sambal oelek
1 tablespoon (14 grams) unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons (16 grams) all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
10 large eggs
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 scallions, chopped
4 ounces cream cheese, cut into small cubes, at room temperature
Flakey salt, to taste
8 sesame bagels, split, store-bought or recipe follows
16 slices American cheese
Ketchup, and hot sauce for serving, optional
6 cups (762 grams) high-gluten flour, plus more for dusting
2 tablespoons (25 grams) brown sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons instant yeast
2 cups (474 grams) warm water (105 to 110 degrees F)
2 tablespoons (42 grams) barley malt syrup or powder
Oil, for the bowl and baking sheets
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 large egg white, beaten
3 tablespoons untoasted sesame seeds
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Place two oven racks in the middle positions. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Arrange the bacon on 2 sheet trays. Using a pastry brush, brush both sides with the sambal. Bake, rotating the sheet trays and flipping the bacon, until golden brown and crispy, 25 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and place the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate or on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to cool and drain off excess oil.
  • For the eggs: Brush the bottoms and sides of two 8-inch square baking pans with the melted butter. Set aside.
  • Put the flour in a medium bowl and whisk in the milk a little at a time until smooth. Add the eggs, salt and pepper and whisk until smooth. Pour into the prepared baking pans and sprinkle the scallions over the top. Scatter the cream cheese evenly on top. Bake until the eggs are just set and the edges have just begun to pull away from the sides of the pans, 20 to 25 minutes. Finish with flakey salt. Cut each pan of eggs into 4 squares, for a total of 8.
  • To assemble: Place each bagel cut-side up on a sheet of foil large enough to wrap the whole bagel. Add a slice of American cheese to each bottom half. Top each with a square of eggs. Top each with a slice of cheese and 3 slices of bacon. (Add ketchup and hot sauce too, if you like.) Wrap the bagels up in the foil. Slice and serve immediately with ketchup or hot sauce if you wish.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, salt and yeast . Add the water and 1 tablespoon of the barley malt and mix to form a stiff dough. Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and slightly sticky. Transfer to an oiled bowl, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Let the dough sit at room temperature for an hour, then turn it out onto a clean work surface. Divide it into 8 equal parts and stretch them into smooth balls, making sure to seal any dough seams well. Shape the bagels by sticking your thumb through the center of each ball and using your fingers to gently stretch a 2-inch hole. Cover the bagels with a towel and let rise for 15 minutes.
  • Arrange the oven racks in the upper middle and lower middle positions. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the baking soda and remaining tablespoon barley malt. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and grease them well. Lay out a clean kitchen towel near your pot of boiling water.
  • Working with 3 bagels at a time, boil them for 1 minute on each side (use a timer for this). With a slotted spoon or spatula, transfer them briefly to the kitchen towel to catch any excess moisture, then transfer to the baking sheets.
  • Brush the bagels with the egg white and sprinkle with the sesame seeds and salt. Bake the bagels for 10 minutes, then switch the positions and rotate the pans and bake until golden brown, 6 to 8 more minutes. Let cool slightly and enjoy!

EGGS-IN-A-HOLE BENEDICT WITH ROASTED GARLIC AND TOMATO HOLLANDAISE



Eggs-in-a-Hole Benedict with Roasted Garlic and Tomato Hollandaise image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 plum tomatoes, halved and seeded
2 cloves garlic, smashed
1 tablespoon canola oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
2 teaspoons canola oil
4 slices Canadian bacon
4 English muffins, split
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the roasted garlic and tomato hollandaise: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Toss the tomatoes and garlic with the oil in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Put on a baking sheet and roast until the tomatoes and garlic are soft and the liquid has evaporated, about 30 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • Combine the egg yolks and lemon juice in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the melted butter and continue blending until emulsified. Add the tomato-garlic mixture and blend until smooth. Cover and keep warm.
  • For the sandwiches: Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat until it begins to shimmer, about 2 minutes. Add the Canadian bacon and cook, turning once, until heated through and lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Remove to a small plate and keep warm. Keep the fat in the skillet and the heat at medium.
  • While the bacon cooks, use a 2-inch round cutter to cut a hole out of the center of each bottom half of the muffins (the bottom is the larger half, usually with cornmeal stuck to it). Melt some of the butter in the skillet until foaming and add the 4 halves of the muffins with the holes, cut-side down. Crack an egg into each hole (it's OK if the egg runs over the muffin), season with salt and pepper, and cook undisturbed until the bottoms are golden brown, about 3 minutes.
  • Using a flat spatula, flip the muffins and cook until the second side is golden brown, about 2 minutes for runny yolks. Put the bacon on top after the first minute or so. Remove to a work surface, keeping the bacon sides up. Quickly add the remaining butter to the skillet and add the muffin tops cut-side down to toast.
  • Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the warm hollandaise on top of each egg, then top with a toasted muffin top. Serve immediately.

EGG-IN-HOLE LAYERED BREAKFAST BAKE RECIPE BY TASTY



Egg-In-Hole Layered Breakfast Bake Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: bread, butter, swiss cheese, ham, spinach, eggs, chive, butter, flour, milk, salt, pepper, ground nutmeg, gruyère cheese, grated parmesan cheese

Provided by Pierce Abernathy

Categories     Breakfast

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

18 slices bread, white sandwich bread
3 tablespoons butter, softened
18 slices swiss cheese
12 slices ham
4 cups spinach
6 eggs
chive, chopped, to serve
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1 pinch ground nutmeg
2 cups gruyère cheese, grated
2 cups grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • On a cutting board, butter all the sandwich bread and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Using a glass, cut out the centers of 6 slices of bread.
  • Toast the bread under the broiler for 5 minutes, or until toasted. Keep a close eye on it so it doesn't burn.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Make the Béchamel sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until it darkens slightly.
  • Add the milk and whisk to combine. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until reduced by half.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and add the salt, pepper, nutmeg, Gruyère, and Parmesan and stir until fully incorporated.
  • Line a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  • Lay 6 pieces of toast in the bottom of the dish. Top with 9 slices of Swiss cheese, 6 slices of ham, and 2 cups of spinach. Repeat to make another layer and top with the hollow-centered toast.
  • Crack an egg into each hole. Carefully ladle the Béchamel sauce over the bake, leaving the yolks exposed.
  • Cover and bake for 35 minutes, then uncover and bake for 10 minutes more, until the eggs are cooked to your liking and the Béchamel is starting to brown in spots.
  • Slice and serve garnished with chives, if desired.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Use Fresh Bread: Stale bread will make your bake dry and crumbly. Fresh, soft bread will give you the best results.
  • Don't Overmix: Overmixing the batter will make it tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a Nonstick Skillet: This will help prevent the eggs and cheese from sticking to the pan.
  • Cook on Low Heat: Cooking the bake on low heat will help it cook evenly and prevent it from burning.
  • Cover the Bake: Covering the bake with aluminum foil will help it cook evenly and prevent the top from getting too brown.
  • Let the Bake Cool: Let the bake cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help it hold its shape.
