For a gourmet touch, try using flavored olive oil instead of bacon grease. Experiment with different types of bread, such as sourdough or brioche, for unique flavor profiles. Add a sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as chives or parsley, for a pop of color and freshness. Serve with a side of crispy bacon or fresh fruit for a complete and satisfying breakfast.
