You know when you make a grilled cheese or quesadilla and the best part is that “cheese skirt” around the edges? Well that’s what these egg sammies are all about. You’ll heat up your pan, add “rings” of feta, then crack the eggs right in the middle. When the eggs are cooked, the cheesy edges will be crispy, crackly, and oh-so-good! You’ll slip those feta eggs into toasted pillowy brioche buns and drizzle with a garlic-chili-herb sauce. For a sweet, crisp contrast, we’ve got a side of apple slices with a velvety sweet and salty peanut butter dipper.

• Wash and dry produce.
• Roughly chop parsley. Peel and mince garlic. Halve, core, and thinly slice apple.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add feta in two small piles (four piles for 4 servings); using a rubber spatula, form piles into rings about the size of a cracked egg.
• Crack eggs* into the center of each feta ring and fry to preference. Season eggs with salt and pepper. TIP: To keep the eggs from sticking together, use a spatula to gently push the feta toward each yolk.
• While eggs cook, halve and toast buns. In a small bowl, combine parsley, garlic, 1 TBSP oil (2 TBSP for 4 servings), and as many chili flakes as you like. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
• In a second small bowl, combine peanut butter and crème fraîche.
• Fill toasted buns with feta eggs and herb sauce; divide between plates. Serve with apple slices and peanut butter crème fraîche for dipping.
Wash hands and surfaces after handling raw eggs. Consuming raw or undercooked eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness.
So delicious, so quick, and so easy to cook! I will make these for myself often :) The feta ring is an AWESOME simple addition to a fried egg that adds so much flavor.
Delish! Loved the spicy, salty feta/egg combo with the sour apples and creamy pb. Delish. The rolls are a bit thick, though, so the bread ratio was a lot for only one egg on the sandwich.
I would never have thought to cook feta this way! It was perfect with the egg yolk running over it.
This was tasty and the apple slices were a nice balanced add. If I made this with my own ingredients I would make it with parmesan and leave the peanut butter straight up (I'm lactose intolerant and could eat that version without a lactase pill, it's not a big deal).
We loved this egg sandwich! I think it's the best out of all the egg sandwiches we had so far. The flavor was so good! Please offer this again.
I felt that the cooking experience with this recipe wasn't as enjoyable, the feta was hard to cook with around the egg and everything kept sticking to the pan, despite me using cooking spray. Could have been user error though!
I'm definitely saving the recipe card and making this again, and again. It was surprisingly easy to make and came out perfectly. It was delicious.
We thought it could have used a saucier sauce. The bun was kind of dry. Perhaps a little mayo instead of or in addition to the parsley-garlic combo? Overall, we thought it was delicious! :)
If I had a breakfast restaurant, I would put this sandwich on the menu & it would be a best seller. You hit this one out of the park.
Use half the feta as it is already really salty. Other than that it's easy and delish.
