Fried Eggs And Bacon Cake Recipes

FRIED GRIT CAKES WITH EGGS AND TOMATO GRAVY

Steps:

• Take the grits after they have cooled and mix in the Parmesan Cheese and garlic powder. Add some cayenne pepper if you like things hot! Spread the mixture on a large baking sheet. Place in the refrigerator to cool for 30 minutes.
• Take a large biscuit or cookie cutter (you can use shaped ones for the holidays!) and cut out the grit mix.
• Place 1 tbsp salt, 1 tbsp pepper, and 1/2 cup all purpose flour in a small bowl and mix well. Pour onto a plate and press the grit cakes into the flour to coat both sides.
• In a skillet over medium heat add the oil to cover the bottom. When the oil is hot but not smoking, drop in the grit cakes, browning both sides. Remove and reserve.
• Cook the country ham or Canadian bacon in another skillet, just until browned. Remove and place on a paper towel to absorb the grease.
• Leave 1/2 cup grease in the skillet for the tomato gravy. (You can use bacon grease instead). Heat the ham or bacon grease over medium high heat. Add 2 tbsp all purpose flour and stir until well mixed, about 1 minute. Add 1 cup milk and stir until it boils. Add the tomatoes and return to a boil. Add the salt and pepper to taste. If it is too thick, add some water and stir.
• Meanwhile, fry your eggs in the skillet you cooked the grit cakes inches
• To assemble, place two cooked grit cakes on a plate. Place a slice of ham or canadian bacon on top of each grit cake. Place a gried egg on top of the ham or canadian bacon. Ladle the tomato gravy over the top and enjoy.

BACON CHEDDAR PATTY CAKES

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon slices, crumble, and set aside. Leave the bacon drippings in the skillet.
• Mix the mashed potatoes, eggs, onion powder, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl; stir in the crumbled bacon and Cheddar cheese.
• Form the mixture into 8 patties. Heat the bacon drippings over medium heat, and pan-fry the patties in the drippings until crisp on each side, about 4 minutes per side.

BACON POTATO CAKES WITH HAM STEAK, EGG, AND SLICED AVOCADO

Steps:

• Bacon Potato Cakes: In large bowl, combine potatoes, bacon, Parmesan cheese, flour, garlic, eggs, green onions, and cayenne pepper; season with salt and pepper.
• Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Scoop tablespoons of batter for each pancake, flattening with spatula, and cook until underside is nicely golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on other side, about 2 minutes longer.
• To Serve: Place bacon potato cakes on plate and top with ham steak. Top with fried eggs, followed by sliced avocado fanned on top.

BACON AND EGG BAKE

Steps:

• The night before baking, butter an 8-by-12 inch baking dish and set aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, fry bacon until crisp; drain on paper towels and allow to cool.
• In a large bowl whisk together the milk, mace, cheese, 1/4 cup ketchup and eggs. Lay bread, slightly overlapping, in two rows down length of dish. Pour milk mixture evenly over slices. Crumble bacon over top. Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• In the morning, remove dish from refrigerator and bring to room temperature. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake egg mixture until top is crispy and golden, about 40 minutes. Cut into squares and serve, if desired, with ketchup on the side.

CRISPY OVEN BACON AND EGGS

Steps:

• Take the eggs out of the refrigerator. Place a rack in the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Arrange the bacon on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer, spacing evenly. Roast in the center of the oven until the fat renders and the bacon curls, about 8 minutes. Very thin slices will cook more quickly; thick-cut ones will take longer.
• Take the pan out of the oven and quickly flip the bacon and move to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs onto the other side, then immediately return the pan to the oven and roast until the whites are just set, the yolks are still runny and the bacon is brown and crisp, 2 to 5 minutes longer. If you prefer medium or hard egg yolks or extra-crisp bacon, cook a few minutes more, but take out the bacon before it burns.
• Using a spatula, cut the eggs apart. Slide them off the pan and onto plates right away to stop the yolks from solidifying. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Drain the bacon on paper towels, then add to the plate along with toast. Serve immediately.
