Carnivore Breakfast Sandwich
Hearty, satisfying, and entirely animal-based, this carnivore breakfast sandwich starts with a warm, savory bun made from pork rinds, egg, and a tangy dairy touch to keep it light and tender. Once pan-cooked, the bun is filled with crispy bacon, a freshly fried egg, and optional melted cheese for a rich, indulgent start to your day. Perfect for busy mornings or a leisurely brunch.

-
Mix the batter: In a small bowl, combine pork rind powder, egg, baking soda, sour cream (or kefir), and salt if using. Mix until even.
-
Cook the bun - stove method: Spoon batter onto a ceramic non-stick pan, cover and cook until firm, flipping once.
-
Cook the bun - oven method: Preheat to 350°F (175°C), spoon batter into a greased ramekin or mold, and bake for 12–15 minutes until set and slightly golden.
