This bacon, egg and tomato toast is a sophisticated upgrade to a classic breakfast roll. By pan-frying succulent plum tomatoes in the savoury bacon juices, you create a rich, sweetened flavour that perfectly complements the salty crunch of the meat. It is a vibrant, textured dish that feels indulgent while remaining a practical choice for a quick midweek meal or a relaxed weekend brunch.
As a high-protein recipe, this dish is an excellent way to fuel your morning or provide a satisfying post-workout lunch. The use of seeded multigrain bread adds a wholesome, nutty depth and extra fibre, making it a well-balanced alternative to standard white toast. Serve it exactly as it is for a comforting, homemade meal that the whole family will enjoy.

How to make Bacon, Egg, and Tomato Toast
Back to contentsFry bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crisp. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Reduce heat to medium and cook tomatoes, cut side down, in same skillet, adding oil if needed and turning once, until tomatoes are browned and tender, 2–4 minutes on each side. Transfer tomatoes to a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Fry eggs in batches in same skillet, adding more oil if needed, until whites are set but yolks are still runny.
Layer 2 bacon slices, 2 tomato halves, and 1 egg on each toast, season with salt and pepper, and serve.
