Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 bagels
- 2 eggs
- 4 slices streaky bacon
- 100 grams (3.5 ounces) halloumi
- 1 ripe avocado
Seasonings and Garnishes:
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 handful fresh chives, chopped
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- Sea salt, to taste
- Cracked black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare crispy bacon and golden halloumi by sizzling both in a skillet until perfectly browned, then set aside for later assembly.
- Crush ripe avocado in a mixing bowl, enhancing its flavor with a splash of zesty lemon juice, vibrant red pepper flakes, delicate sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
- Slice bagels horizontally, creating a sturdy base for layering ingredients with precision and care.
- Generously spread the seasoned avocado mixture across the bottom half of each bagel, creating a creamy foundation.
- Artfully arrange crisp bacon and caramelized halloumi slices atop the avocado spread, building layers of texture and flavor.
- Carefully create a small circular cavity in the bagel’s top half, preparing a nestled space for the egg.
- Gently crack an egg into the prepared hole, ensuring it sits perfectly centered and ready for cooking.
- Preheat the air fryer to 190°C, creating an optimal cooking environment for transforming the assembled bagels.
- Carefully place the egg-topped bagels into the air fryer basket, allowing them to cook for approximately 5 minutes until the egg reaches desired doneness.
- Remove the golden-brown bagels from the air fryer, adding a final flourish of freshly chopped chives for a burst of color and subtle onion flavor.
- Serve immediately, presenting a visually stunning and deliciously layered breakfast creation.
Notes
- Prep bacon and halloumi in advance to streamline cooking process and ensure everything is ready when needed.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients like free-range eggs and artisan bagels for enhanced flavor and texture.
- Customize egg doneness by adjusting air fryer cooking time – shorter for runny yolks, longer for firm eggs.
- Consider gluten-free bagels or low-carb alternatives like portobello mushrooms for those with dietary restrictions.
