Sweet rolls layered with fruit jelly, crisped Spam, and soft fried eggs make a salty-sweet breakfast sandwich with a little heat if you want it.
Prep 5 min · Cook 8 min · Total 13 min · Makes 4 breakfast sandwiches
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided
- 4 Hawaiian sweet rolls or brioche buns, cut in half
- Pineapple, mango, or strawberry jelly, for spreading on the rolls
- 4 slices Spam, each 1/4-inch thick
- 4 eggs
- Sriracha sauce, optional
Directions
- In a large non-stick skillet set over moderately high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter. Add the sweet rolls with their cut sides facing the pan, and cook until lightly toasted, 1-2 minutes. Move the rolls to a large platter, then spread jelly over each toasted surface.
- Add the Spam slices to the same skillet and cook until they are browned and crisp at the edges, 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Set the Spam on the bottom halves of the sweet rolls.
- Turn the heat down to medium low and melt the remaining butter in the skillet. Crack in the eggs, taking care to keep the yolks intact. Cover the pan and cook until the whites have just set, 3 to 4 minutes. Slide an egg onto each piece of Spam, add Sriracha over the eggs if you’re using it, and close the sandwiches with the remaining sweet roll tops. Serve immediately.
