We are big breakfast for dinner fans in the Kiwi and Peach house. It’s simple, straightforward, and usually pretty quick.
When I was in Croatia this spring, I picked up a teeny tiny jar of delicious homemade fig jam. I was kind of saving it to use on something special when I saw this delicious looking sandwich floating around on Pinterest. This was it. What more could you want? There’s fig, there’s creamy brie, and most importantly, there’s pig.
Mmm. Bacon.
Pig and Fig Breakfast Sandwich
{adapted for two from Sweet Sugarbean}
4 slices of bacon
2-3 ounces brie
4 slices of sourdough bread
2 Tbsp fig jam
1 Tbsp butter
Start heating a pan on medium high heat and lay the bacon in the pan.
While the bacon is cooking, cut the rind off of the brie and build your sandwich. Spread the jam on each piece of bread. Layer the brie and, when it’s finished, the bacon on two slices and then top with the other two.
Drop the butter into the hot pan. When it’s melted drop your sandwiches in the pan and cook until the bread is golden brown. Flip and do the same on the other side and the cheese is melted.
Enjoy by itself or with some scrambled eggs or with fresh fruit. The possibilities are endless!
That sounds (and looks) soooo good! 🙂
Oh, it is, and super quick too!
