Made with Hovis® 4 Cheese & Herb Sub Rolls

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Cook time: 15 minutes

Serves 1

Ingredients

1 Hovis® Cheese & Herb Sub Roll
2 slices Bacon
1 tbsp Maple syrup
60g Brie (sliced)
1 tbsp Chilli jam
1 Fried egg

Tip

To avoid burning and ensure even melting, grill the brie-topped sub roll on the middle shelf and rotate it halfway through. This gives you gooey cheese and a perfectly toasted roll every time.

Method

Preheat your oven to 200°C (fan) / 220°C (conventional). Brush the bacon slices with maple syrup and lay them on a lined baking tray. Cook in the oven for 10–15 minutes, or until crispy.

While the bacon cooks, slice your Hovis® Cheese & Herb Sub Roll in half lengthways. Place the sliced brie on the bottom half and lay both halves (cut side up) under a preheated grill for a few minutes until the brie is melted and the roll is toasted. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning.

Once toasted, spread the chilli jam over the melted brie. Add the crispy maple bacon and top with a freshly fried egg. Close the sandwich and serve immediately.
