Description

This breakfast “doughnutwich” has the absolute perfect balance of salty and sweet. Pillow-light Krispy Kreme glazed doughnuts act as a bun for savory fried bologna, a slice of cheese, and a gooey fried egg. Make this your new special occasion breakfast.

Ingredients

  • 4 whole Krispy Kreme Original Glazed Doughnuts (or Other Glazed Yeast Doughnuts If You MUST)
  • 2 slices Bologna
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter, Divided
  • 2 slices American Cheese (or Cheese Of Your Choice, Though Processed Melts Better In This Application)
  • 2 whole Eggs

Preparation

Lay 2 doughnuts out on a plate. Cut a slit from the middle of each slice of bologna to the edge (so it won’t curl). Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter in it. Place the slices of bologna in the frying pan. Laugh at how they start to look like little PacMen. Fry them until they’re browning on one side and then flip them. Add a slice of cheese to the top of each piece of bologna and continue frying until the bottom is browned. Place the slices briefly onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain off the excess butter, and then place them onto the 2 waiting doughnuts.

Melt the last tablespoon of butter in your skillet. Break one eggs at a time into the pan and fry it to your desired doneness (I’d like to make a pitch for over-easy or -medium, since the gooey yolk is delicious in this sandwich!). Place a fried egg on top of each slice of bologna and cheese. Top your two doughnut sandwiches with two more doughnuts as the “top buns” and serve immediately.
