Skip the long restaurant lines and serve up a breakfast burger for brunch. In this recipe, a turkey patty is stacked with bacon, egg and avocado on an English muffin for a perfect breakfast-y bite—and no one has to wake up too early.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Sriracha chili sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- BURGERS:
- 1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup cubed medium ripe avocado, peeled
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 4 English muffins, split and toasted
- 8 cooked maple bacon strips
Directions
- In a small bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients.
- In a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, mayonnaise, salt, onion powder, garlic powder and pepper. Add turkey; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into four 3-in.-thick patties.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add burgers; cook until a thermometer reads 160°, 2-3 minutes on each side. Top each burger with 1 slice cheese; cover and cook until cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes longer. Remove and keep warm. Wipe pan clean.
- Heat butter in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Break eggs, 1 at a time, into pan; reduce heat to low. Cook until whites are set and yolks begin to thicken, turning once if desired.
- In a small bowl, mash avocado with lemon juice; spread over English muffin bottoms. Place burger, egg and bacon on each. Spread Sriracha mayonnaise over inside of tops. Replace bun tops.

This recipe is a great way to mix up your traditional breakfast sandwich! I use ground turkey for a leaner option and add sriracha mayo for heat. To make your own maple bacon, brush one side of regular bacon with maple syrup prior to cooking. Halfway through the cook time, flip the bacon and brush with additional maple syrup. —Gabriella DiSanto, Lancaster, Pennsylvania
