Bylina

If you thought breakfast couldn’t get more exciting, allow me to introduce Big Mac French Toast. It’s savory, cheesy, beefy, and absolutely indulgent—everything you love about a Big Mac, sandwiched between two golden, crispy slices of savory French toast. This over-the-top breakfast-lunch hybrid is perfect for weekend brunches, game day mornings, or when you’re just craving something totally different and delicious.

Why This Works
Big Mac French Toast takes the iconic flavors of the famous burger—ground beef, pickles, melty cheese, and that signature “special sauce”—and wraps them in a rich, eggy, French toast shell. It’s like the best parts of a burger and breakfast had a delicious baby. This isn’t your everyday morning meal—it’s hearty, satisfying, and guaranteed to turn heads (and taste buds).

Ingredients You’ll Need
For the French Toast:

  • 4 thick slices of white bread or brioche
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Butter or oil for the pan

For the Big Mac Filling:

  • ½ lb ground beef
  • Salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste
  • 2 slices cheddar or American cheese
  • 2 tablespoons diced onions
  • Pickle slices
  • Shredded lettuce (optional)

For the Special Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon sweet relish
  • Dash of vinegar
  • Pinch of garlic and onion powder

How to Make Big Mac French Toast
Step 1: Cook the Beef
In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat, seasoning with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Break it up into small crumbles. Once cooked through, drain excess grease and set aside.

Step 2: Make the Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the special sauce. Set aside in the fridge while you prep the rest.

Step 3: Prep the French Toast Batter
Whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dip each slice of bread into the mixture, coating both sides evenly.

Step 4: Cook the French Toast
In a large skillet or griddle, melt butter or heat oil over medium heat. Cook each slice of egg-soaked bread until golden brown and set—about 2–3 minutes per side. Set aside.

Step 5: Build the Sandwich
Take one slice of French toast and layer on some cooked ground beef, a slice of cheese, diced onions, pickles, and a generous drizzle of special sauce. Top with another slice of French toast. Press gently.

Step 6: Toast the Whole Sandwich
Optional but recommended: return the full sandwich to the skillet for another minute or two per side to melt the cheese and warm everything through.

Serve It Up
Cut the Big Mac French Toast sandwich in half, let that cheese ooze out, and serve it hot. Add some extra sauce on the side, or go full diner-style and serve with crispy hash browns or fries.

Tips & Twists

  • Swap in sausage or bacon if you want a breakfast-forward version.
  • Make it spicy with jalapeños or spicy mayo.
  • Add a fried egg in the middle for the ultimate brunch upgrade.
  • Use Texas toast for maximum structure.
