Ingredients
- 6 large eggs separated
- 4 oz. cream cheese room temperature
- ยผ tsp garlic powder
- Sea salt and black pepper to taste
- 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 large avocado sliced
- ยฝ medium tomato thinly sliced
- 12 thick-cut slices bacon cooked crispy
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325ยบF and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or Silpatโข baking mats. Set aside.
- Add the 6 egg whites to the bowl of a stand-mixer or a large mixing bowl if using a hand mixer. Mix on high speed until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the cream cheese with 4 egg yolks and the garlic powder. (Reserve the remaining egg yolks for another use). Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and stir to combine. Set aside.
- Working in batches, gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cream cheese mixture with a spatula just until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Do not overwork.
- Spoon approximately a quarter cup of the mixture on the prepared baking sheets to create 8 circles. Gently spread the mixture into one-half inch high circles, leaving some space between each circle. (The mounds will spread a bit while baking).
- Bake until the egg rounds become golden and fully set in the center, approximately 15-20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and trim each egg round with the cookie cutter, if desired. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on four of the circles and return to the oven just until the cheese is melted, approximately 2 minutes.
- Remove baking sheet from oven and top each of the rounds with cheddar with 2-3 avocado slices, a thin slice of tomato, and one strip of bacon broken in half. Top with the remaining egg rounds and serve immediately with 2 additional strips of crispy bacon on the side. Enjoy!
Notes
Optional Tip: Use a 3 or 4โ round cookie cutter to trim the egg rounds after baking.ย
