Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Peameal bacon
- 2 whole Kaiser rolls or brioche buns
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Maple syrup
- 2 leaves Leaf lettuce
- 1 medium-sized Tomato
- 2 slices Sharp cheddar cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat a skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat.
Place sliced peameal bacon in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through. Once cooked, set aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
While the bacon is cooking, slice the Kaiser rolls or brioche buns in half. Spread about 1 tablespoon of butter evenly on the cut sides of each roll.
Toast the buttered sides of the rolls in a separate skillet or on a griddle over medium heat until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and maple syrup until smooth. This will be your mustard aioli.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
To assemble the sandwich, spread a generous layer of the mustard aioli on the toasted sides of the rolls.
On the bottom half of each roll, layer one slice of sharp cheddar cheese, two slices of cooked peameal bacon, a leaf of lettuce, and a few slices of tomato.
Finish by placing the top half of the roll on the sandwich. Gently press down to secure the layers.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Perky Peameal Bacon Sandwich with your favorite side dish or drink!
