1 Toast the English muffins until golden and set aside.

2 In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp (about 6โ€“8 minutes). Transfer to a paper towel to drain.

3 Wipe the skillet, lower heat to medium-low and add 1 tbsp butter.

4 Whisk the eggs in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour into the skillet and gently fold or cook as an omelette until just set (2โ€“3 minutes).

5 Place the cheese slice on the hot egg so it melts slightly.

6 Spread smashed avocado on the muffin bottoms if using, season with a little salt and pepper.

7 Assemble: muffin bottom, egg with melted cheese, two slices of bacon, optional hot sauce, then muffin top.

8 Garnish with chopped chives or parsley, slice in half and serve warm.
