Start your day with indulgent cheesy bacon breakfast tacos smothered in rich maple sausage gravy. A crazy good breakfast you won't forget!
Ingredients
- • bacon strips: 8 slices
- • large eggs: 6
- • milk: 1/4 cup
- • shredded cheddar cheese: 1 cup
- • small flour tortillas: 8
- • breakfast sausage: 1/2 pound
- • unsalted butter: 2 tablespoons
- • all-purpose flour: 2 tablespoons
- • maple syrup: 2 tablespoons
- • chicken broth: 1 cup
- • heavy cream: 1/2 cup
- • salt: to taste
- • black pepper: to taste
- • chopped chives: for garnish
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 2 Lay the bacon strips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes until crispy, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.
- 3 While the bacon cooks, prepare the maple sausage gravy. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and cooked through, breaking it into small pieces.
- 4 Add butter to the sausage and let it melt. Stir in the flour to create a roux, cooking for about 1-2 minutes until golden.
- 5 Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and maple syrup, followed by the heavy cream. Let the mixture simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- 6 In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Scramble them in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until just set, then remove from heat.
- 7 Warm the tortillas in the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until soft and pliable.
- 8 Assemble the tacos by placing scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and a generous sprinkle of cheddar cheese onto each tortilla. Drizzle with warm maple sausage gravy.
- 9 Garnish with chopped chives and serve immediately, savoring each indulgent bite.
Serving Suggestions
- • These breakfast tacos are a meal in themselves, but you can pair them with a side of fresh fruit or a light green salad for a bit of balance. For a truly indulgent morning, enjoy them with a steaming cup of coffee or a frothy cappuccino. If you're in the mood for something refreshing, a freshly squeezed orange juice or mimosa makes a perfect accompaniment.
Storage Tips
If you have leftovers, store the elements separately for the best texture. Keep the scrambled eggs, bacon, and tortillas in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Store the gravy in a separate container. To reheat, warm the eggs and tortillas in a skillet over low heat, and gently reheat the gravy on the stove, stirring occasionally. Assemble the tacos just before serving.
