Ingredients
Scale
Bread
- 2 slices of bread (sourdough, whole grain, or classic white)
Cheese
- 2 slices of melty cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or gouda)
Eggs
- 2 large eggs
Butter
- 1 tablespoon of butter
Salt and Pepper
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 pinch of pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients and preparing them for cooking. This means slicing the bread and cheese and cracking the eggs into a bowl, ready for whisking.
- Whisk the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. This will create a fluffy texture once cooked, enhancing the overall dish.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place one slice, buttered side down, on a heated skillet. Layer cheese on top, followed by the scrambled eggs, and add another layer of cheese before topping with the second slice of bread, buttered side up.
- Cook the Sandwich: Cook on medium heat for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwich, pressing down slightly, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once both sides are golden and crispy, remove the sandwich from the skillet. Let it cool for a moment, then slice in half to reveal the ooey-gooey cheesy goodness inside!
Notes
- Use Quality Ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the final dish will taste.
- Don’t Rush Cooking: Cooking on medium heat allows the cheese to melt perfectly without burning the bread.
- Flip Carefully: Use a spatula to help flip the sandwich without losing any fillings.
- Experiment with Spreads: Consider adding mayonnaise or pesto to the outside of the bread for added flavor.
- Pair with Soup: Serve with your favorite soup for a comforting, complete meal.
