Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend)
• 4 large eggs
• 4 slices of cheddar cheese
• 4 burger buns (toasted)
• 4 slices of crispy bacon
• 1 medium tomato, sliced
• 1 cup lettuce leaves
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Butter for frying

How to Make Ultimate Breakfast Burger Stack

1. Start by shaping the ground beef into four equal patties. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside on paper towels to drain excess grease.
3. In the same skillet, cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.
4. While the burgers are cooking, heat another small skillet with a bit of butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook sunny-side up or to your preference. Season with salt and pepper.
5. To assemble, place a toasted burger bun on a plate. Add a lettuce leaf, then the cheesy burger patty, followed by a slice of tomato, a crispy bacon slice, and a fried egg on top. Drizzle with maple syrup.
6. Cap off with the top half of the bun and serve immediately. Enjoy your breakfast burger stack!

Tips for the Best Results

• Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for maximum flavor.
• Don’t skip toasting the buns; it adds a great crunch and prevents sogginess.
• For extra flavor, consider seasoning the burger patties with garlic powder or smoked paprika.
• Adjust the cooking time of the eggs based on your preference for doneness.

Easy Variations

• Swap the cheddar for pepper jack cheese for a spicy kick.
• Add avocado slices for creaminess and a health boost.
• Use turkey or plant-based patties for a lighter option.
• Experiment with different sauces like sriracha or aioli instead of syrup for a savory twist.

What to Serve With It

• Crispy hash browns or home fries
• Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side
• A side of yogurt with granola
• Mimosas or coffee for a perfect brunch pairing
