McDonald’s steak, egg, and cheese bagel is so filling and delicious. It's a fluffy omelet topped with melty cheese hearty steak and onions. But this recipe? You can make it at home, so you don’t have to venture out for a meaty and decadent breakfast sandwich. And this way you can customize it to your liking.

We use shaved steak instead of a patty, so all of the ingredients are fairly inexpensive and easy to find. If you’re feeling daring, you can make your own bagels. But the store-bought version works just fine. 

This recipe is for two sandwiches, but you can easily cut the recipe in half if you’re making this for one, or double up for the whole family. Use any bagel you like, but some of the best matches include plain, marble, sesame, poppy, and everything.

Tip for Making Steak, Egg, and Cheese Bagel Recipe

It's super-important to use a nonstick skillet if at all possible, to ensure the eggs cook well and that nothing else sticks to the pan as you go. Alternatively, use a very well-seasoned cast-iron skillet that you know will cooperate.

Make Ahead

You can make the onion and steak ahead of time and heat it in the pan quickly before you're ready to serve. This is also a great recipe for using leftover steak. Slice it and heat it in a pan with the onion.

If you want to make a larger batch, you can simply scramble the eggs so you don’t have to make omelets one at a time.

Feeling Adventurous? Try This:

  • Make bagel bites - If you've got smaller bagels—bagels vary wildly in size, depending on where you get them—you can turn this recipe into bagel bites instead and halve all the ingredients you'd use on one bagel.
  • Use any bagel you like - Some of the best matches include plain, marble, sesame, poppy, and everything.
