It’s made with toasted slices of a quick microwave coconut flour bread. Layers of cheese, ham, and fried egg complete the delicious experience. This keto breakfast sandwich is delicious, substantial, and filling. Breakfast may not be the most important meal of the day, but it’s my favorite meal. Low-carb or not, I strive to make it good! The basis for this sandwich is 90-second bread. It’s so wonderfully versatile that I use it whenever I want a bread substitute. It’s much easier to make than cloud bread, which is excellent but more labor-intensive.

Recipe Card
For the bread:
Butter: I use salted butter in this recipe. You can use unsalted butter and add a pinch of salt. Egg: I use large eggs in almost all my recipes, this one included. Coconut flour: Try to measure it by weight and not by volume. It’s extremely absorbent, so each extra gram makes a difference. Baking powder: Make sure it’s fresh. And if you need it to be gluten-free, verify that as well.
For the sandwich:
Olive oil spray: I use it to cook the egg and toast the bread. Egg: Again, I use a large egg since that’s what I typically have on hand. A slice of cheese: I like to use sharp cheddar cheese. A slice of deli ham: A thick slice works best in this recipe.
You can also use a different bread as the base for this sandwich. I sometimes use this keto English muffin. Lastly, instead of deli ham, you can use Canadian bacon. It’s fully cooked, so it’s your choice whether you want to cook it before adding it to the sandwich. I usually don’t. Make the keto bread. Melt the butter in a ramekin or shallow bowl, mix in the remaining bread ingredients, and microwave the mixture for 90 seconds. Let the bread slightly cool, then slice it into two slices. Assemble the sandwich. Start with a slice of bread, topped with cheese, ham, and an egg, and then add the second slice of bread. When I feel like splurging, I make two keto breads. I then use one as the bottom layer and one as the top layer of the sandwich. So rather than make one piece of bread and slice it into two thin slices, I make two pieces of bread. This gives me a thick, substantial sandwich. Sometimes, I slice a beefsteak tomato into thick slices, sprinkle it with coarse salt, and serve it on the side. A bowl of berries is another delicious side to this sandwich.
