Ingredients
- 1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter, softened
- 6 everything bagels, split
- 2 medium yellow onions, halved and sliced
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- Hot sauce, as needed
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 pound bulk hot breakfast sausage
- 1 pound bulk maple breakfast sausage
- 12 slices Cheddar
- 6 large eggs
Instructions
- Put a cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Butter the cut sides of the bagels. Lay the bagel halves in the skillet butter-side down and toast until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
- In the same skillet, throw in the sliced onions and 1 tablespoon of the butter and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and golden, about 20 minutes. Remove to a plate.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, mustard, some hot sauce and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Mix together the hot and maple sausage in a medium bowl. Form the mixture into six 1/2-inch-thick patties, slightly bigger than the diameter of the bagels (since the burgers will shrink during cooking).
- Put the same skillet over medium heat, add the sausage patties and fry on both sides until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Top each patty with 2 slices of Cheddar and cover the skillet with a lid to facilitate melting, 1 to 2 minutes.
- In a separate nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, fry the eggs in 1 tablespoon of butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until set on one side, then flip and cook the second side to desired doneness.
- Build the sandwiches by spreading the mayo/mustard mix on the bottom half of each bagel, then top with a sausage patty, some caramelized onions and a fried egg. Spread more of the mayo/mustard mix on the top half of the bagels and place on top of the eggs to finish. Serve warm or wrap in foil to transport.

Reviews
It’s a big meal, so plan accordingly. The flavors melt together perfectly and it’s really easy to make it’s a new staple for my days off. Love it.
This is so delicious. The sweet from the maple and the heat from the other sausage and the hot sauce makes this have such umami.
These sound delicious and I’ll be making them soon. However, this is waaay too much for my husband and I to eat so I’m going to use mini bagels (and of course make the burgers smaller to fit). I think it will make them easier for the grandkids to eat as well. I’ll serve the onions on the side – husband can’t eat onions in any way, shape or form and kids don’t like them yet. Also, I’m not a fan of fried eggs, so I’ll just make them soft scrambled so they don’t fall apart.
Love the combination of hot and maple sausage, delicious!
Sooooooooooo great
So flavorful and filling
My husband loved this sandwich! I used a bacon sausage. My butcher makes it. But I’m sure any will work just fine. Full of flavor! I didn’t use the butter.
I just made one sandwich, cut down on my portions. Also used pepper jack cheese. I am certain I will make these again!

Haven’t tried this yet but did find a recipe for maple sausage online.
Would love to try this but I cannot find bulk maple sausage anywhere. Even tried specialty meat stores and Amazon – oh well!
