Bacon Egg & Cheese McGriddles

What is it?

Sweet griddle cakes bookend bacon, folded egg and American cheese, with maple-flavoured pockets baked into the bun-like cakes. Format comes from McDonald's McGriddles range, which swaps standard bread for these pancake-style rounds, so the whole sandwich leans softer and sweeter than a regular breakfast roll. Bacon brings the salty, smoky note, while the egg is cooked into a neat fold and the cheese melts over the centre. What makes it distinctive is that maple sweetness built right into the bread, not drizzled on top. It creates a salty-sweet combination in every bite that you won't find in the McMuffin or wrap options. Eaten warm, the griddle cakes stay pillowy and the maple flavour comes through more clearly.
