Bacon Breakfast Cake Recipes

BACON BREAKFAST CUPCAKE

Steps:

• For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-count muffin tins with paper cupcake liners.
• Combine the all-purpose flour, cake flour and baking soda in bowl; set aside. In a separate bowl, mix the sour cream, vanilla and eggs; set aside.
• Heat the beer and butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat until the butter is just melted. Stir in the cheese, remove from the heat and whisk in the brown sugar. Slowly add the beer mixture to the egg mixture, stirring. Fold/gently stir in the dry mixture, then fold in the bacon.
• Fill the muffin cups three-quarters full with the batter. Bake until an inserted toothpick comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let the cupcakes cool on a wire rack.
• For the hollandaise sauce: In the container of a blender, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, Worcestershire, vinegar and hot sauce. Cover and blend for about 5 seconds.
• Put the clarified butter in a glass measuring cup. Heat in the microwave until completely melted and hot, about 1 minute. Set the blender on high speed and pour the butter into the egg yolk mixture in a thin stream; it should thicken almost immediately. Fold in the chopped parsley once the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Keep the sauce warm until serving by placing the blender container in a pan of hot tap water.
• Top each cupcake with a fried egg and add some hollandaise. Serve warm.

BRUMMIE BACON CAKES

Steps:

• Heat grill to high and grill the bacon for 10 mins, turning halfway, until crisp. Cool for a few mins. Meanwhile, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a baking sheet with parchment. Sift the flour and ½ tsp salt into a bowl, add the butter, then rub in to the texture of fine breadcrumbs. Cut the bacon into small pieces and add to the bowl with a third of the cheese.
• Mix the milk, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce in a jug. Pour into the bacon mixture, stirring briefly, to make a soft dough. Flour the work surface, turn the dough onto it and shape into an 18cm round. Brush with milk, then cut into 8 wedges with a large knife.
• Arrange the wedges on the baking sheet and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 20-30 mins or until risen and golden brown, and serve warm (or cool on a wire rack, and store in an airtight container). Warm the bacon cakes through in a low oven (140C/120C fan/gas 1) if you've made them in advance.
