This creamy goat cheese egg sandwich is what brunch dreams are made of!
The Creamy Goat Cheese Egg Sandwich with Caramelized Onions is a rich and flavorful breakfast or brunch option that delights the senses. Soft, fluffy eggs are cooked to perfection and layered with tangy, creamy goat cheese, which adds a luscious texture and a slight tanginess that pairs beautifully with the eggs. Sweet, deeply caramelized onions bring a mellow, savory sweetness that elevates the sandwich, creating a perfect balance of flavors.
This sandwich is a satisfying blend of creamy, sweet, and savory notes all nestled between toasted bread or a buttery roll. The caramelized onions add a comforting richness, while the goat cheese lends a fresh, tangy bite that cuts through the sweetness. It’s a comforting, gourmet twist on the classic egg sandwich that’s both hearty and elegant.

Creamy Goat Cheese Egg Sandwich with Caramelized Onions
Ingredients
- Semolina roll
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp butter
- Creamy cheese of choice this is the Vermont Creamery bijou goat
- 1 cup arugula
- 1/2 a lemon
- Sea salt
- Pepper
- 1 onion
- Olive oil
- Splash of wine
Instructions
- Peel onion and thinly slice into rings. Add oil to a large skillet and add onions. Season with salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat, stirring often. When pan is dry, add a splash of wine every so often. Cook onions for about 25-30 min or until onions have reduced drastically in size and become browned and caramelized.
- Preheat oven to broil. Slice bread and add slice of cheese to each piece. Broil for about 3-4 min or until browned and melty.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet. Whisk eggs and when skillet is very hot, pour eggs into pan. Add salt, pepper and a few more pieces of cheese. This will make the eggs super creamy and extra fluffy. Using a spatula, fold the eggs toward the middle of the pan. Turn heat off after 1 min as the eggs will continue to cook.
- Season some arugula with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Add eggs to melty cheese bread, and add onions and arugula. Enjoy!
