This sinfully delicious brunch sandwich will become your new favorite brunch food! This sweet and savory combination of glazed doughnuts, fried eggs, bacon, and a hamburger patty are perfect together.
Earlier in the week, my husband told me about a sandwich he had seen on tv. It was a hamburger with a doughnut for a bun. That got me thinking. Why not “brunchify” that hamburger by topping it with bacon and a fried egg?
Because this is a food blog dedicated to creating delicious recipes from all natural ingredients, I don’t have doughnuts on hand. However, our church does!!! They bring in boxes and boxes of glazed doughnuts every week.
I’ve been serving on the host team for over a year now and have yet to eat one of those doughnuts. I’m pretty sure that makes me completely justified for what I am about to disclose.
Being a church going woman, I don’t feel very good about it, but we snagged some doughnuts from church for this sandwich. In my defense, I did send my husband to the grocery store to buy some, but he came home empty handed. He said he wasn’t going to pay 89 cents per doughnut when they have them at church for free.
For this sandwich, I started by grilling up a couple of hamburgers and frying some bacon and eggs. I like to use equal parts of butter and oil for fried eggs. When I do it this way, the egg white turns out nice and thick and composed rather than all spread out with crispy edges. To make it pretty, I cracked the eggs in to a biscuit cutter.
Once the hamburger, bacon, and eggs are ready it’s time to build your masterpiece. For the perfect stack, where the doughnut won’t get soggy, slice the doughnut in half and top it first with a hamburger, then the bacon, and finally the fried eggs.
Every once in awhile you gotta say who cares and indulge in a brunch sandwich!
