There’s something about a hearty breakfast sandwich that makes mornings a little more bearable, and when bacon and avocado are involved, you know you’re starting the day off right. This combo brings together crispy, salty bacon and creamy, buttery avocado in a way that feels indulgent yet satisfying. It’s the kind of breakfast that keeps you full, focused, and happy until lunch.
The bacon and avocado breakfast sandwich is a modern classic. It’s easy to assemble, endlessly customizable, and far better than anything you’ll find in a drive-thru. The base is usually a toasted English muffin, croissant, or hearty bread like sourdough or ciabatta. Then comes the crispy bacon—freshly cooked, not too chewy, not too brittle. Next is the avocado, either mashed with a squeeze of lemon or sliced generously to let its creamy texture shine.
Eggs are often part of the mix too, adding even more substance and flavor. You can scramble them, fry them sunny-side-up, or go with a soft yolk for that perfect breakfast sandwich drip. A slice of cheese, like cheddar, Swiss, or provolone, ties everything together with its gooey, melty goodness.
This sandwich is a popular choice for weekend brunch, but it’s also easy enough to throw together on a busy weekday morning. It works great as a meal prep option—just cook the bacon ahead of time and have your avocado and bread ready to go. If you’re short on time, you can even wrap it in foil and take it with you for breakfast on the go.
What makes this sandwich really stand out is the balance of flavors and textures. The smokiness of the bacon, the richness of the avocado, and the crunch of toasted bread all work together to make every bite satisfying. Add a little hot sauce, a dash of pepper, or a handful of greens for a fresh twist.
It’s simple, delicious, and worth every bite.

This was amazing! The bacon made it so flavorful, and the avocado added the perfect creaminess. Definitely a new favorite for breakfast! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This sandwich is my new breakfast favorite! The bacon and avocado combo is unbeatable. Honestly delicious!
This was okay, but I think it needs more something. Maybe cheese? Idk.
Bacon = yes, Avocado = yes. What more can you ask for? It’s breakfast perfection! 🌞 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I tried this recipe but it didn’t turn out as expected. The eggs were overcooked and the bacon was too greasy. Maybe I need to practice more? ⭐⭐⭐
Don’t be too hard on yourself! Eggs can be tricky sometimes. Maybe try cooking them on lower heat next time? Sounds yummy anyway! 🍳🥓
I don’t know why everyone is raving about this… it’s just a sandwich? Kind of lame.
So good! But you know, you could add some cheese for extra flavor! Just saying… 💡
So simple and tasty! I added some cheese and it was divine!
Delish! I added some hot sauce to mine and it was fire 🔥🔥. Can’t wait for breakfast again!
Fire? Really? I dunno about hot sauce on breakfast. Seems weird.
That sounds amazing! Hot sauce is a great idea. I love adding a kick to my breakfast!
This is just a fried egg sandwhich with bacon n guac. Not special!
I was skeptical at first but tried it. It was OK, but I found the bacon too greasy for my liking.
Best breakfast ever! My kids loved helping make these. Quick and fun!
I love bacon, but isn’t bacon bad for you? I mean, I still want to try it, but like… I worry. 😂 ⭐⭐⭐
Just made this 10 minutes ago! It’s so fast and easy. But my English muffins fell apart. Sad! 😟 ⭐⭐⭐
Mmm, better luck next time! Maybe use bagels instead? More stable!
Oh no! Sorry to hear that. Did you toast them a bit too long or maybe they were too fresh? Try letting them cool a bit next time!
Yum! Just what I needed for a weekend brunch. Everyone was asking me for the recipe! 🍳🥑
Bacon is bad for you. I prefer a healthier option without it. Just sayin’.
I get where you’re coming from, but bacon has its appeal! You can’t deny the flavor it adds to a breakfast sandwich. Maybe try a turkey bacon instead?
Healty schmelty. Bacon is the best part of breakfast! You can’t just replace it and expect the same taste. Just sayin’.
Too greasy for my taste. My kids didn’t like it. 😕
I actually loved it! The grease adds flavor. Maybe try reducing the bacon next time?
It’s bacon! Of course it’s greasy. But not all kids like avocado. Just saying.
Quick and easy, my kids love it! They ask for these sandwiches every Saturday! 🥰
That sounds amazing! I’m going to try it for brunch this weekend. My kids are going to love it too! 🥳
I don’t know… sounds kinda unhealthy with all that bacon. Can’t you just use turkey bacon or something?
Could you use turkey bacon instead? I’m trying to be healthier. Still, sounds good.
Wow, who knew bacon and avocado could taste so good together?? 🥑🥓
Good recipe but I used whole wheat muffins instead; still taste good. Just a healthier option, you know? 🍞👏
bacon avokado = great combo. 10/10, worth making again!!
Best breakfas sandwich ever! Five stars!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Waste of time. Just eat the bacon. And who fries eggs anyway?
Yum!! Can’t believe I never thought to put avocado on my breakfast sandwich. Genius!!!
Why English muffins? Use normal bread! They taste same. Sounds like marketing to me. 🤨
I disagree! English muffins are more classic for breakfast sandwiches. The texture is the key! 😋
I used turkey bacon instead. Still turned out great! Yummy!
Yummy! But I skipped the avocado because I think it’s just mushy and tastes funny. Just me? ⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is the most simple recipe ever. Who needs it? Bacon, eggs, avocado? That’s what everyone does. Booooring! ⭐⭐
This seems easy but took me forever! Is it just me or what? Maybe I’m slow… Anyway, still tasted good! ⭐⭐⭐
I forgot the salt and pepper, and it was kind of bland 😕. Next time I will remember. ⭐⭐
It was okay, but the eggs were too runny for me. Maybe cook them longer next time. Just my opinion.
Too much grease from the bacon, made it kinda soggy. Next time I’m gonna try turkey bacon. More healthy!
Delicious! The bacon and avocado combo is amazing. Will definitely make again.
Quick n easy! Perfect for a busy mornin’. Thanks!
I dunno about this recipe. Sounds weird to add avocado to breakfast.
Avocado with bacon? That’s like peanut butter on steak! But hey, maybe I’m just old-fashioned.
I don’t understand the hype. It’s just bacon and eggs?! Where’s the flavor? 😒
Have you tried adding some hot sauce or a slice of cheese? That might give it the flavor you’re missing! 🌶️🧀
This sandwich was AMAZING! The avocado adds such a nice creaminess to the crispy bacon. Definitely a keeper! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I totally agree! The avocado really makes it all come together. I’ve tried it with some hot sauce too, and it’s even better! 👍
