Bacon, egg and avocado on a bagel is my favorite breakfast sandwich made with scrambled eggs, center cut bacon and sliced tomatoes on my homemade bagels.
These are breakfast goals right here!! If you’re a breakfast person and like to start your day with a big meal, then this sandwich has your name all over it! Also great for brunch or lunch.
We are obsessed with making bagels, the recipe is so easy I usually make a double batch to use for sandwiches for the week. I refrigerate the leftovers then pop them in the toaster. This breakfast sandwich is my go-to! Sometimes I make a runny egg, or scramble some egg whites with spinach.
But often, scrambled eggs (I like them soft) are my go to when I want to make eggs for the whole family. The beauty about making your own bagels for these sandwiches, they taste great, and can be made with whole wheat or gluten-free flour. While the bagels bake, make the eggs and bacon and let everyone assemble their sandwiches.

These are so delicious! My center cut bacon scans as one point each, so I counted mine as 6 WW points total. It seems the center cut bacon used in this recipe must have been three points each unless I am overlooking something. I appreciate all the delicious Skinnytaste recipes!
Forgot to mention 2 eggs per serving if this serves 4
Hi Gina, I’ve loved many of your recipes over the years. I’d like to try your air fryer recipes also, but I cannot decide which one to buy and would like to know which one you use to get such amazing results. I use my double oven stove, with roast, bake and convection- bake, or roast for all your recipes, but am eager to try an effective air fryer.
Thank you so much for all your e-mail recipes! Teresa Goodin
Hi Teresa! I just got this air fryer- https://www.amazon.com/GoWISE-USA-GW22931-7-Quart-Accessory/dp/B07V39R29T/ref=sr_1_2?crid=128Z2OYB4HWLR&dchild=1&keywords=gowise+usa+8-in-1+digital+air+fryer+7+qt&qid=1612400697&sprefix=gowise+8+in+1+air+fryer+7+%2Caps%2C277&sr=8-2
Hi. I was wondering how you arrived at your points for this (and now all) recipe. 1 oz of avocado = 1.5 pts, your bagel is listed as 3 pts, 1 slice center cut bacon = 3 pts. Putting it at least at 6.5. But this is listed as 6 points. Should I be rounding up to an extra point in my WW tracking? It needs to be very accurate to be successful.
In high school, my mom would make me a breakfast sandwich almost every morning. This quickly became one of my favorite breakfasts, but as I grew older and out of my teenage metabolism, these became more of a treat for me, but this filling recipe provides a light, delicious way to go back to my teenage years and not feel bad about it!
Aww, that makes me happy!
Easy and delicious!
Any tips on adding cheese? Should I melt it open-faced in the oven?
Favorite sandwich any time of day. Love the bagel recipe and am so impressed how well it works. Very satisfying to see the results.
Any suggestions for freezing and reheating…would you use oven or microwave?
Sure without the avocado
Will this work with wheat flour?
Sorry…saw it does in the article
Love this recipe. Meal prepped it for the week and goes not disappoint. Thank you Gina.
How many sp if i leave off the avocado?
It’s 2 points for 1 oz avocado, so it would be 4 smart points without the avocado.
How can you prevent the avocado from discoloring? I would like to make some breakfast sandwiches ahead but I’m afraid of that.
You can make them ahead, adding the avocado the day of!
To keep leftover avocado from browning in the fridge, store in an airtight container with a small piece of onion. Works like a charm!! Gina, LOVE all your recipes!!!!
Do you think these would freeze well? Or last in the fridge all week if I meal prep them?
I think they would freeze well without the avocado or tomato, you can add that when ready to eat and reheat.
Just made these and they were excellent. Hit the spot for a late breakfast, early lunch after running errands all morning and just having had coffee. Beautiful photography too, Gina, great job and thanks for the creative and easy recipes – keep them coming!
Just reading my emails and going to make this right now! Perfect for a late Saturday breakfast! Enjoy your weekend!
Would like to know if you could use almond flour?
No I tried!
it wont work
I made your bagel recipe twice this week! I do reduce the salt in them to a scant 1/8 tsp because my husband is salt sensitive. Still very delicious and fun to make. I also made a cinnamon raisin version, adding 1/4 cup raisins, 1 TBLS brown sugar, and 1 tsp of cinnamon. Must try this breakfast sandwich soon! Thanks so much for all the beautiful recipes.
Could these be made ahead of time, wrapped, and frozen?
Yes, without the tomato and avocado
You were proud of this one, Gina! Lots of pictures!! LOL! Love it! I have all the ingredients to try it this weekend! Thanks for all your recipes.
These look soooo good! I’m adding these to my meal plan for the week. Your bagels are THE BEST!
I did. They’re fantastic ☆
It’s not freestyle points. It’s smart points.
yes, but it clears up the confusion as I get asked over and over.
how do you know how many points to eat?
