The Only Way My Kids Will Eat Breakfast Bacon Cheese Rolls

Cheesy Bacon Toast Rolls (Kids Go Crazy for This!)
If you have school kids at home, you know the struggle.
Breakfast has to be fast, filling, and something they’ll actually eat not just poke and abandon.
This cheese & bacon toast roll is one of my secret weapons.
It takes just a few minutes, the cheese melts and oozes out, the bacon gets slightly caramelized, and every bite is rich and satisfying. My kid finishes it every single time.
Ingredients (Simple & Kid-Friendly)
- Thick sliced white toast
- Cheese slices
- Bacon slices
- 2 eggs
- A small amount of milk
- Oil for the pan
That’s it. Nothing fancy, nothing complicated.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Toast
Cut each thick slice of toast in half.
Place one slice of cheese in the middle, then cover it with another piece of toast to make a sandwich.
Step 2: Cut Into Portions
Cut the toast sandwich into three equal strips.
This makes them easier to roll and perfect for little hands.
Step 3: Roll with Bacon
Wrap each toast strip tightly with a slice of bacon.
Just roll it up like this no toothpicks needed.
At this point, it already smells amazing.
Step 4: Make the Egg Mixture
Crack two eggs into a bowl.
Add a small splash of milk and mix well until smooth.
This makes the outside soft and golden when pan-fried.
Step 5: Coat the Rolls
Pour the egg-and-milk mixture over the bacon toast rolls, making sure they’re nicely coated on all sides.
Step 6: Pan-Fry
Heat a lightly oiled pan over low heat.
Place the rolls in and pan-fry slowly, turning them until all sides are golden brown and cooked through.
Low heat is important so the cheese melts inside without burning the bacon.
Step 7: Serve
That’s it done!
Crispy bacon outside, soft toast inside, and melty cheese bursting out with every bite.
Mom Notes
- Great for school mornings
- High in protein and filling
- Easy to customize (swap bacon for ham or sausage)
- Kids love the crispy outside + gooey inside combo
Simple, nutritious, and honestly… very satisfying even for adults.
This one is definitely staying in my 100-days kids meal rotation

This Golden Potato Snack Is Crispy Outside Soft Chewy Inside
Food Snack For Parties
Golden outside, soft and chewy inside potato lovers, this one’s for us.
Okay, I’ll say it proudly: I am the potato god.
If there’s a potato at home, I *will* turn it into something good.
These hash browns are exactly how I love them crispy, golden crust on the outside, and soft, chewy mashed potato inside.
Simple ingredients, no drama, and perfect for breakfast, snacks, or “I’m hungry but don’t want to think” moments.
Ingredients
- Potatoes
- Pepper salt (or salt + black pepper)
- Starch (cornstarch or potato starch)
- Oil for frying
That’s it. Potatoes doing potato things.
Step-by-Step (Follow Along Easily)
Step 1: Prep the Potatoes
Peel the potatoes and slice them evenly.
Try not to cut them too thick so they steam evenly.
Step 2: Steam Until Soft
Steam the potato slices for about 30 minutes, until fully cooked.
They should be soft enough to mash easily with a fork.
Step 3: Season & Mash
Add pepper salt to the hot potatoes.
Mash everything until smooth no big chunks.
This is where it starts smelling really good.
Step 4: Add Starch & Knead
Add some starch and knead until it comes together into a soft dough.
You want it:
- Smooth
- Not sticky
- Easy to shape
If it feels too wet, add a little more starch.
Step 5: Shape the Hash Browns
Roll the mashed potato dough into small balls.
Gently press them flat.
Use a fork to press down and create a flower or criss-cross pattern.
Not just cute it helps make them extra crispy.
Step 6: Fry
Heat oil over medium heat.
Once the oil starts to bubble, carefully add the hash browns.
Fry over medium–low heat until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
Step 7: Serve Hot
Take them out and drain on paper towels.
Serve hot and crispy plain or with ketchup, chili sauce, or whatever you love.
Qna For Recipes
Q: What type of potatoes are best for these hash browns?
A: Any starchy or all-purpose potatoes work great. They mash easily and give that soft, chewy center with a crispy crust.
Q: Why do the potatoes need to be steamed instead of boiled?
A: Steaming keeps the potatoes from absorbing too much water, which helps the dough stay firm and easier to shape.
Q: How much starch should I add?
A: Start with a small amount and add gradually until the dough feels smooth, not sticky, and easy to shape. Too much starch can make them dry.
Q: Can I use potato starch instead of cornstarch?
A: Yes! Both work well. Potato starch gives a slightly chewier texture, while cornstarch makes the outside crispier.
Q: Why fry on medium–low heat instead of high heat?
A: Medium–low heat lets the inside warm through and stay soft while the outside turns golden and crispy without burning.
Q: Can I make these ahead of time?
A: Yes. You can shape them in advance and keep them in the fridge. Fry them fresh for the best texture.
Q: How do I keep the hash browns crispy after frying?
A: Drain them on paper towels and avoid stacking while hot. Serve immediately for maximum crispiness.
Final Potato Thoughts
Crispy outside.
Soft and chewy inside.
Simple, comforting, and impossible to stop eating.
If you love potatoes, this recipe is non-negotiable.
Once you try it, you’ll understand why I call myself the potato god
Crispy Outside Soft Inside Potato Cookies Homemade
Dessert Snack For Parties
(A Potato Lover’s Dream Come True)
I swear, potatoes never stop surprising me.
Just when I thought I’d tried every possible way to cook them… this happened.
These potato cookies are crispy on the outside, soft and chewy inside, with a rich buttery aroma that fills the kitchen while baking. I made them for afternoon tea, and somehow they disappeared before the show even reached episode two.
If you’re a potato lover like me this one is pure happiness.
Why I Love This Recipe
- Simple ingredients, no fancy tools
- Naturally soft inside, no eggs needed
- Perfect for afternoon tea or movie snacks
- Cute enough to impress, easy enough for busy days
Ingredients
- Potatoes
- A pinch of salt
- Black pepper (to taste)
- 2 small cubes of butter
That’s it. Simple, honest, comforting.
Step-by-Step (Easy to Follow)
Step 1: Steam the Potatoes
Peel the potatoes and slice them evenly.
Steam until completely soft you should be able to mash them easily with a fork.
Step 2: Season & Mash
While the potatoes are still hot, add:
- A pinch of salt
- Some black pepper
- Two pieces of butter
Mash everything until it turns into a smooth potato mash.
The butter will melt and smell amazing at this stage.
Step 3: Sieve for Extra Smoothness
This step is optional, but I highly recommend it.
Press the mashed potatoes through a sieve once.
It makes the texture much smoother and the cookies more delicate.
Step 4: Pipe the Cookies
Transfer the potato dough into a piping bag.
Pipe onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Don’t worry about perfection
rustic shapes are part of the charm 💛
Get creative with swirls, flowers, or simple rounds.
Step 5: Bake
Bake in a preheated oven at:
- 180°C / 350°F
- 20–25 minutes
Bake until the edges turn golden and crispy.
Step 6: Enjoy
Let them cool slightly before eating.
The outside will be crisp, the inside soft and chewy, with a rich buttery flavor.
Perfect with tea, coffee, or just straight off the tray while standing in the kitchen (mom habit 😅).
QNA For Recipes
Q: What kind of potatoes work best for this recipe?
A: Starchy potatoes like russet or all-purpose potatoes work best. They mash easily and give a soft, fluffy texture inside.
Q: Do I need eggs or flour to make these potato cookies?
A: No. This recipe doesn’t use eggs or flour. The potatoes themselves create the soft, chewy texture.
Q: Why should I sieve the mashed potatoes?
A: Sieving removes lumps and makes the dough extra smooth, which helps the cookies bake more evenly and feel softer inside. It’s optional, but highly recommended.
Q: Can I shape the cookies without a piping bag?
A: Yes. You can use a zip-top bag with the corner cut off or simply spoon and shape them by hand. They don’t need to look perfect.
Q: How do I know when the potato cookies are done baking?
A: They’re ready when the edges turn golden and slightly crispy, while the center stays soft. This usually takes about 20–25 minutes at 180°C (350°F).

These potato cookies are:
- Crispy
