McDonald's Bacon, Egg & Cheese Bagel Complete Information

A McDonald's Bacon, Egg & Cheese Bagel costs $6.74 and carries 590 calories with 21g of protein. Thick cut applewood smoked bacon, folded egg and American cheese on a toasted bagel, with a savoury sauce.

The bagel line is the substantial end of the McDonald's breakfast menu. A bagel carries far more bread than an English muffin or a biscuit, which is why this lands at 590 calories against 460 for the same filling on a biscuit. What you get for those calories is 21g of protein and a sandwich that actually holds together in one hand, which the softer breads do not manage as well. The meal version at $9.19 bundles Hash Browns and a drink. Pair it with a black Coffee (Small) at $2.49, or take the Steak, Egg & Cheese Bagel at $7.64 for the heaviest sandwich on the breakfast board.

Health Insight

At 590 calories and 1320mg of sodium, this one is best treated as an occasional order rather than an everyday one.

How to Make a Bacon, Egg & Cheese Bagel at Home?

Bagel sandwiches live or die on how hard the bagel is toasted. Underdone and the whole thing is doughy; properly golden and it holds three wet fillings without going anywhere. The restaurant version is $6.74.

Tips

  • Toast the bagel harder than feels necessary. It is structural, not decorative.
  • Sauce on both faces, which keeps the bread from taking on moisture from the egg.
  • Bacon above the egg so it stays crisp.

Variations

  • Swap the bacon for steak for the Steak, Egg & Cheese Bagel at $7.64.
  • Swap it for a sausage patty for the Sausage Egg and Cheese Bagel at $6.48.
  • Drop the meat entirely for the Egg and Cheese Bagel at $7.64.

Serve hot with Hash Browns. The restaurant sandwich is $6.74 and the meal $9.19.
