Bread

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Add the chopped bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper. Stir until everything is evenly mixed.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Egg Mixture

    In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, pour the egg mixture. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set and creamy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.

  2. 3

    Prepare the Bread

    In another skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Place 2 slices of sourdough bread in the skillet. Spoon half of the cooked egg mixture onto each slice and top with the remaining slices of bread to create two sandwiches.

  3. 4

    Grill the Sandwiches

    Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Grill the sandwiches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Press down slightly with a spatula to ensure even cooking.

Serving

  1. 5

    Slice and Serve

    Once both sides of the sandwiches are golden brown, remove from heat, slice in half, and serve immediately while hot.
