Ingredients

• 6 slices Thick-cut bacon
• 1 medium, finely diced Yellow onion
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar
• 0.25 cup Brewed coffee
• 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 2 slices Artisan bread
• 2 Eggs
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 2 tablespoons A1 sauce
• 0.25 cup Watercress (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

1. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the bacon and set aside to cool on a paper towel-lined plate. Chop the bacon into small pieces once cooled.

Step 2

2. Drain all but 1 tablespoon of bacon fat from the skillet. Add the finely diced onion to the skillet and sauté over medium heat until softened and golden, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

3. Stir in the brown sugar, brewed coffee, balsamic vinegar, and honey to the skillet with the onions. Add the chopped bacon back to the skillet. Simmer the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it thickens into a jam-like consistency, about 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

4. While the bacon jam is simmering, toast the slices of artisan bread until golden brown. Set aside.

Step 5

5. Heat the olive oil and butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, keeping them separate. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 6

6. To assemble, spread a generous amount of bacon jam over each slice of toasted bread. Place one fried egg on top of each slice.

Step 7

7. Drizzle each sandwich with 1 tablespoon of A1 sauce. Optionally garnish with fresh watercress for a pop of color and flavor.

Step 8

8. Serve immediately and enjoy your decadent Open Face Bacon Jam and Egg Sandwich!
