Ingredients:

  • 4 slices brioche bread (about 1 inch thick)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
  • Optional: A sprinkle of grated cheddar cheese

Instructions:

  1. Use a cookie cutter to cut a circle from the center of each slice of brioche. Reserve the circles for making croutons or enjoying as a snack.
  2. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet over medium heat. Place the brioche frames in the skillet and toast until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook the bacon until crispy, either pan-fried, baked in the oven, or microwaved.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper.
  5. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in the same skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, gently stirring with a spatula, until the eggs are cooked through but still moist.
  6. Place the toasted brioche frames on plates. Fill each frame with the scrambled eggs.
  7. Top with crumbled bacon, chopped chives, and grated cheddar cheese (if using). Serve immediately.
