Ingredients
Scale
Bread and Butter
- 2 slices of bread (white, sourdough, or whole wheat)
- 1 tbsp butter (divided)
Egg Mixture
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
Cheese
- 2 slices cheddar or American cheese
Instructions
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Cook Scrambled Eggs: Heat 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and scramble gently until just set. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.
- Butter Bread: Spread the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter on one side of each slice of bread.
- Toast First Bread Slice: Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place one slice of bread, butter-side down, in the skillet to begin toasting.
- Assemble Sandwich: Layer one slice of cheese on the bread in the skillet, add the scrambled eggs on top, then place the second slice of cheese over the eggs. Finally, place the second slice of bread on top, butter-side up.
- Grill Sandwich: Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, carefully flipping, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
- Serve: Remove the sandwich from the skillet, let it cool slightly, then slice and serve warm for a delicious breakfast treat.
