To begin, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of butter. Once the butter has melted, place the brioche buns cut-side down in the pan. Toast them until they turn golden brown and crispy, then set them aside to cool.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter and crack the eggs directly into the pan, gently breaking the yolk. Season the eggs with salt and pepper, and cook until they’re set. Carefully flip the eggs over and place a slice of American cheese on each. Cover the pan and turn off the heat, allowing the residual warmth to melt the cheese and finish cooking the eggs.
Now, it’s time to assemble the sandwich. Start by placing the eggs with melted cheese onto the toasted buns. Layer the pre-cooked bacon slices and roasted red bell peppers on top. For a little kick and sweetness, add a couple of dashes of Tabasco sauce and a small drizzle of Maine maple syrup.
Finally, top the sandwiches with the remaining half of the brioche buns. Serve immediately, savoring the comforting and nostalgic flavors of this classic breakfast sandwich with an upscale twist!
