Ingredients
-
6 strips bacon
-
4 large eggs
-
2 tablespoons milk
-
1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
-
8 slices cheddar cheese (or 1 1/2 cups shredded)
-
4 thick slices sourdough bread
-
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
Instructions
-
Cook Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels to remove excess grease.
-
Scramble Eggs: In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, and black pepper. In the same skillet, cook the eggs over medium heat, stirring frequently until soft and fully set.
-
Assemble Sandwiches: Butter one side of each bread slice. Place the buttered side down on a clean surface. Layer with cheese, scrambled eggs, bacon, and more cheese.
-
Grill to Perfection: Top with another slice of bread, buttered side up. Grill the sandwich in the skillet over medium heat until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
-
Serve & Enjoy: Let the sandwich rest for a minute, slice it in half, and enjoy!
Notes
-
For extra flavor, try adding a sprinkle of hot sauce or herbs to your scrambled eggs.
-
You can substitute the bacon for turkey bacon or omit it for a vegetarian version.
-
To make it even cheesier, add some shredded mozzarella or provolone alongside the cheddar.
