Excerpt
Bacon Blankets
MAKES 2 SERVINGS
Why do lazy eggs get to have all the fun? Being wrapped up in a warm blanket of bacon sounds like the best way to take a nap. Oh, to be all snuggly and comfy—bacon is the weighted blanket of breakfasts. Just imagine it draping over you and holding you tight. A little sprinkle of brown sugar adds that special touch of salty sweetness, and there’s no better combo when it comes to kicking off a relaxing morning. Just think, if we all slept with bacon blankets, the world would be a better place.
2 slices bacon
1 teaspoon (5 g) light brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon (17 g) unsalted butter
¼ teaspoon (1 g) salt
⅛ teaspoon (1 g) pepper
In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, place the bacon and sprinkle the brown sugar on top. Cook until just crisp, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Break the eggs that can’t be beat into individual bowls.
In the same skillet over medium heat, melt the butter, then slide the eggs into the pan.
When the edges start to turn white, cover the pan and lower the heat. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, until the whites firm up. Season with salt and pepper.
Lay the bacon blankets over the eggs to serve.
Unmotivated Breakfast Sandwich
MAKES 1 SERVING
Some days it’s just too much effort to sit and eat properly with a fork and knife. That’s why edible carrying cases were invented—and by that I mean an English muffin. Just pile in your breakfast and you’ve got a totable meal in hand. Now you’re motivated, now you’re moving, now—you can go eat on the couch instead of at the table. Don’t worry about manners—you’re not being uncivilized, you’re just being you.
1 slice Canadian bacon
1 large egg
1 tablespoon (17 g) unsalted butter
⅛ teaspoon (1 g) salt
teaspoon (1 g) pepper
1 English muffin, split and toasted
1 slice American cheese
In a small nonstick skillet, cook the Canadian bacon until slightly browned and crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Set aside.
Crack the egg into a bowl and beat with a fork.
In the same skillet, heat the butter over medium heat.
Pour the egg into the pan, coating the bottom as if making a crepe. Season with salt and pepper.
When the edges start to set, fold the sides in to form a small square.
Place the egg onto the bottom of the English muffin. Top with cheese, then Canadian bacon.
Place the top of the English muffin on top to serve.
Good Night’s Sleep Overnight Oats
MAKES 1 SERVING
Imagine getting up in the morning and doing nothing more than grabbing a spoon to eat your breakfast. No, you won’t be eating boring cereal or the last lowly yogurt in the back of the fridge that no one wants. I’m talking about a perfect meal of flavorful oatmeal. Just how does one achieve this magical morning ritual? By prepping a jar of oats the night before, adding some fruit and a little sweetener, then heading off to bed. That’s it! It couldn’t be easier. Why, it’s enough to make you into a morning person.
⅔ cup (60 g) rolled oats
1 cup (230 ml) almond milk
1 tablespoon (15 ml) maple syrup
½ teaspoon (2 ml) vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon (1 g) ground cinnamon
¼ cup (36 g) fresh blueberries
In a mason jar, place the rolled oats, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and cinnamon. Stir together.
Top with fresh blueberries.
Cover and refrigerate the jar overnight.
In the morning, serve cold or heat in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds and serve warm.
Slow-Moving Sausage Muffins
MAKES 12 MUFFINS
Breakfast in bed is a great idea in theory, but with all that clanging from plates and utensils, it’s hardly restful. That’s why hearty muffins are the ideal solution to your morning meal challenges. These Slow-Moving Sausage Muffins are packed full of everything delightful: sausage, eggs, and cheese—the holy trinity of breakfast foods. The advantage of breakfast muffins is that you can hold them in your hand and eat while still completely tucked into bed. That’s not lazy, that’s multitasking.
7 ounces (185 g) fully cooked breakfast sausage, diced
1 cup (118 g) diced onion
2 cups (295 g) all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons (30 g) light brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon (17 g) baking powder
½ teaspoon (2 g) paprika
½ teaspoon (2 g) salt
¼ teaspoon (1 g) pepper
1¾ cups (280 ml) whole milk
1 large egg
3 tablespoons (43 g) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup (77 g) shredded Cheddar cheese
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Prep a muffin tin with paper liners.
In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage and onions until the sausage is browned and the onions are soft, about 7 to 8 minutes. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and stir in the buttermilk, egg, and butter, until just combined.
Fold in the sausage, onions, and cheese.
Spoon the batter into the liners. Bake for 20 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from muffin tin and let cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. These are best served warm.
Bleary-Eyed Baked Eggs
MAKES 12 SERVINGS
Eggs play a key role in breakfast, but making them can take time. Whether you’re standing over a stovetop waiting for them to boil, or getting dizzy watching them swim in circles as they poach, pandering to eggs can be downright exhausting. Thankfully, these baked eggs are here to save you. Just crack them into a muffin tin, add veggies, a dash of cream, and some cheese, then let them do their thing. In just minutes you’ll have a fully formed breakfast with minimal effort on your part. Thanks, eggs, for doing all the hard work.
