Loaded French Toast Brunch Burger with Fries - Fries Before Guys Burger

Hope you came hungry, because this brunch burger is not for the faint of hearts or stomachs.

This loaded brunch burger idea came just around one of my favorite holidays - Valentine’s Day. So officially, unofficially I’m also naming this burger the “Fries Before Guys” Brunch Burger.

Stacked mine with a fried egg, bacon, cheese, lettuce, and tomato. The beauty of it is it’s sandwiched between two french toast slices, adding that sweet and savory element to the dish. Come hungry, eat it with friends or roommate while binging Netflix or make for a extra special date night at home, perfect for that brunch loving couple type.

Ingredients:

For the French Toast buns:

  • Brioche Bread

  • 2 Eggs

  • 4 Tbsp - Milk

  • 2 Tbsp Vanilla

  • 1 Tbsp Cinnamon

For the Burgers + Condiments:

  • Burger patties or ground beef to form patties

  • Cheese Slices (Optional Condiment)

  • Lettuce ( Optional Condiment)

  • Tomato (Optional Condiment)

  • Fried Egg (Optional Condiment)

  • Bacon (Optional Condiment)

  • Avocado (Optional Condiment)

  • Bag of Frozen Fries Fries/Tater Tots/Sweet Potato Fries - Your favorite potato.

Instructions:

Make the French Toast Buns:

  • Slice the brioche buns into four slices

  • In a bowl, mix the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon

  • Heat a pan with some butter (or can use oil, or non-stick spray)

  • Dunk the bread slices in the egg mixture and place in the pan, about 2 at a time to not crowd the pan.

  • Cook until both sides are golden brown and little crispy (about 5 minutes each side), set aside

Make the burgers:

Season your meat with salt & pepper. On either the a grill or pan, cook your burger to your preferred temperature. Set aside.

Assemble:

Once the burgers are done. Time to assemble on the french toast buns. You can add as many condiments as you want to your burger. I went ALL out!

For the fries (in the photo) I did make these homemade. Honestly, it was a ton of work and I’d definitely recommend saving the hassle and time by just getting a frozen bag of your favorite potato and heating those up in the oven to go with the burger. Enjoy!
