What is a Scrambled Egg Sandwich?

A scrambled egg sandwich is a delicious and nutritious breakfast option that is perfect for busy mornings. It consists of scrambled eggs, bacon, cheese, and avocado, all sandwiched in a buttery croissant. The combination of flavors creates a unique and tasty meal that will give you the energy to make it through the day. 

Scrambled egg sandwiches are also very easy to customize to suit your tastes. They can be topped with different vegetables, meats, and sauces for an almost entirely new flavor. No matter how you make it, scrambled egg sandwiches taste amazing and are a healthy breakfast option.

What You Need to Make Scrambled Egg Sandwich at Home

All you need are some simple, pantry-staple ingredients to make this delicious Scrambled Egg Sandwich at home. Let's look at each of the ingredients in more detail:

• Croissant buns: You can pick up a pack of these at your local bakery or grocery store. They have a delicious light buttery flavor that goes great with the eggs and bacon. 

• Bacon: We'll also use some bacon to add even more flavor to our delicious breakfast sandwiches. I highly recommend checking out my post on How to Make Perfect Quick and Easy Oven Broiled Bacon to learn how to broil them for the best results!

• Cheddar cheese: Next we'll need some cheddar cheese to melt on our sandwiches. You can pick your favorite kind, but I've used medium cheddar for this recipe. 
• Avocado: Avocado slices really take these egg sandwiches to the next level. They're buttery, creamy, and slightly nutty, with tons of vitamins and minerals. 

• Scrambled eggs made out of 6 large eggs (See How to Make the Best Scrambled Eggs Recipe post)

How to Make Scrambled Egg Sandwich (Step-by-Step)

Making scrambled egg sandwiches is easier than you think. Here's how to make it step by step:

Start by cutting the croissant buns in half. You can lightly toast them if you prefer, but this is optional. 

Place a slice of cheese on each bun and a strip of bacon. You can also cut the bacon into pieces.

Next, place egg and 3 slices of avocado onto the stack. Lightly sprinkle the avocados with salt and pepper.

If your eggs are freshly made, the heat will help melt the cheese over the small curds of the eggs.

Place the top of the bun on the sandwich and serve.

NOTE: If you're making these sandwiches for next morning's breakfast, do not place avocado onto the sandwiches. Instead, wrap each individual sandwich in plastic food wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate.

Before consuming, unwrap the plastic wrap, heat the sandwich in a toaster oven until heated through, then place the avocado. This helps the avocado nut get mushy while sitting in the fridge or freezer overnight. 

Tips for Making the Best Scrambled Egg Sandwich Ever

Use high-quality ingredients: Using the best quality ingredients you can find will make all the difference in your sandwich. Choose good quality bacon, eggs, and cheese for the tastiest sandwich ever.

Use ripe avocados: Make sure your avocados are properly ripe for your sandwiches. They should be darker in color and their skin should yield to firm, gentle pressure. 

Mix it up: The best part about these sandwiches is that they're so versatile! You can easily customize them to make this recipe your own and to change up the flavor. Check out the next section for variation ideas that I'm sure you'll love. 

Recipe Variation Ideas for Scrambled Egg Sandwich

This Scramble Egg Sandwich recipe is absolutely perfect as is, but here are some variation ideas you can try to change up the flavor:

• Try different bread: Croissants are great for these sandwiches, but they're not the only option. Try regular toast, bagels, English muffins, or brioche buns too. 
• Use more meat: You can replace or add to the bacon with other meats. Try adding a few slices of ham or a sausage patty for an even heartier breakfast. 
• Add vegetables: For added nutrients and extra flavor, top your sandwiches with some fresh vegetables. Onion, tomato, arugula, baby spinach, and regular spinach are all great options. 
• Use a spread or sauce: Spread a layer of mayo, mustard, butter, or a spoonful of pesto onto your bread for extra flavor. If you want an extra kick, add a little hot sauce or sriracha. 

How to Store Leftover Scrambled Egg Sandwich

Leftover scrambled egg sandwiches can be stored in an airtight container and refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.

If you plan to eat them the next day, they’ll stay fresh longer if you wrap each sandwich separately in aluminum foil or plastic wrap before storing them. For freezing, I recommend using freezer paper since this type of paper prevents food from freezer burns.

To reheat your sandwiches, simply unwrap them and heat them in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through, or microwave them for 1-2 minutes.

Alternatively, you can reheat frozen sandwiches in the oven. To do this, place wrapped croissants on a baking sheet and reheat them in the oven for 2-3 minutes if fresh, and for about 7 minutes if frozen at 400 F.
