Ham and Egg Sandwich
This recipe is from My Tiny Alaskan Oven
by LaDonna Rose on June 4, 2018 in My Tiny Alaskan Oven, Recipes, Sandwiches

While writing this cookbook, I have been thinking about all the delicious treats I’ve had on my trips out of Alaska. It got me to thinking about the foods that I crave from those travels, which got me to thinking about a trip Ole and I took to Old San Juan. Walking by a bakery, I laid my eyes on a flaky pastry dusted in confectioner’s sugar. I had to have one. Fluffy, buttery, slightly sweet and oh so good! I then learned that you could halve them and stuff each roll with ham, a fried egg and cheese making this Ham and Egg Sandwich a sweet and savory treat. I learned to make them and found that this is the sort of recipe that can come together in the evening while watching your favorite show. They will keep well over night and in the morning, you can treat your family to freshly baked sweet rolls. Continue Reading →
