Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the pan
8 slices Canadian bacon (about 4 ounces)
4 brioche hamburger rolls, split
1/2 cup dijonnaise (or mayonnaise mixed with dijon mustard)
1/4 cup jarred Peppadew peppers, chopped, plus 2 tablespoons brine from the jar
4 slices gruyere cheese (about 2 ounces)
1 5-ounce package mixed greens (about 8 cups)
1/4 cup packaged fried shallots or onions

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, chives, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl until fluffy. Generously coat the bottom and sides of an 8-inch-square or round cake pan with olive oil; add the egg mixture. Set in a roasting pan; add enough water to come 1/4 inch up the sides of the cake pan. Carefully transfer to the oven; bake until the eggs are set, 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches if needed, add the Canadian bacon and cook until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per side; set aside.
  • Cut the baked eggs into 4 equal pieces. Spread the rolls with the dijonnaise, then sandwich with the Peppadews, bacon, cheese and eggs. Place the sandwiches on a baking sheet and bake until the cheese melts, about 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss the greens with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the Peppadew brine and fried shallots; season with salt and pepper. Serve with the sandwiches.

BAKED HAM, EGG AND CHEESE BREAKFAST SANDWICHES FOR A CROWD



Baked Ham, Egg and Cheese Breakfast Sandwiches for a Crowd image

The genius move behind these easy sandwiches is cooking enough scrambled eggs for twelve on a baking sheet; no stovetop required. Top with sliced cheese and sandwich between pillowy pull-apart rolls, then let the oven do the rest of the work for you!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield 12 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 8

10 large eggs
4 scallions, finely chopped (about 3/4 cup)
Kosher salt
One 12-pack pull-apart dinner rolls
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
6 slices American cheese (4 ounces)
4 slices deli ham, finely chopped (4 ounces)
Hot sauce, such as Tabasco, for serving

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place two 2-foot-long pieces of nonstick aluminum foil next to each other so the long sides are just touching. Pinch the edges together and then fold them over several times to seal and form one large piece of foil. Line a rimmed baking sheet with the foil and set aside.
  • Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk well. Add the scallions, 1 teaspoon salt and 2 tablespoons water and whisk to combine.
  • Split the whole pack of attached dinner rolls in half horizontally using a serrated knife. Set aside.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the prepared baking sheet and place in the oven to melt, about 3 minutes. Spread the butter all over the foil with a pastry brush and then pour in the egg mixture. Place the attached roll halves cut-side down and side by side on top of the eggs and return to the oven. Bake until the eggs are completely set, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, butter another baking sheet with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Using heatproof mitts, top the rolls with this baking sheet and invert the whole thing. Remove the top baking sheet and peel back the foil. Top half the eggs with the cheese and the other half with the ham. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
  • Using a large metal hamburger spatula, flip the bottom half of the rolls onto the other half, so the rolls are top-side up. Cut or pull the rolls apart. Serve with hot sauce.

BEST EVER EGG & CHEESE SANDWICH



Best Ever Egg & Cheese Sandwich image

This is an old family favorite. I have added a little heat to it with the pepper flakes. Fried onions are also a nice option to make it a little special. Try it with a little Thousand Island Dressing. Cheddar cheese is fine but Cheez Whiz does the trick!

Provided by GaylaV

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 egg
2 teaspoons margarine (or butter)
2 slices bread (multigrain is best)
1 tablespoon Cheez Whiz (or your favorite cheese)
salt and pepper (to taste)
red pepper flakes (to taste)

Steps:

  • Melt margarine in frying pan.
  • Add egg (don't break the yolk, but if you do that is alright too!).
  • Gently fry the egg.
  • Sprinkle the egg with the salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes. (if you don't like hot, leave them off).
  • Flip the egg over. I like the yolk to be a bit soft. Polk the yolk after you have turned the egg so that a bit of the yolk seeps out.
  • Spread the Cheez Whiz on one side of the bread.
  • Put the egg on the bread and top with the other slice of bread. (I like the side with the pepper flakes to meet the Cheez Whiz).
  • Return the sandwich to your fryng pan and grill until golden, flip over and grill the other side. (I don't butter the sandwich before frying).
  • Enjoy!
