This breakfast sandwich with a chili crisp egg is the ultimate savory brunch

The Deets
Indulge in the ultimate grilled cheese avocado breakfast sandwich, elevated with a perfectly cooked egg drizzled with Momofuku chili crunch hot honey. This sandwich is a delicious blend of flavors and textures, with a balance of sweetness and heat from the chili crunch, paired with the creamy richness of avocado and the melty goodness of gourmet cheeses.
I opted for classic white bread for this sandwich, lightly buttered on the outside to achieve that ideal golden-brown crisp when grilled. The interior is layered with a mix of fontina and Gruyère cheese. Fontina adds a smooth, buttery texture, while Gruyère brings a slightly nutty, earthy depth, creating a balanced bite!
The avocado slices add a fresh, creamy contrast to the gooey cheese, making the sandwich feel indulgent yet wholesome. The star of the show, though, is the egg, fried to perfection with a runny yolk and topped with a drizzle of @momofukugoods chili crunch hot honey. This unique condiment infuses the sandwich with a spicy-sweet kick that complements the richness of the cheese and avocado, adding a bold and flavorful twist to the classic breakfast sandwich.
This grilled cheese avocado breakfast sandwich is a must-try, especially for weekend mornings when you have the time to savor each bite. Whether you’re enjoying it with a hot cup of coffee or pairing it with a refreshing juice, this sandwich is sure to start your day on a delicious note!
