Bacon and Egg Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 scrambled eggs (If you want to know how to make perfect scrambled eggs, click here)
- 4 slices of baked bacon (This is the one I love and used in the video)
- 4 slices of aged sharp cheddar
- 4 slices mozzarella
- 1 unsalted tablespoon butter for scrambling eggs
- a couple tablespoons of butter for making sandwiches
- 8 thick slices of sourdough bread
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Crumble the bacon and add to a cast iron skillet, set to medium high heat.
- Once it begins to sizzle, add a tablespoon of unsalted butter and add the eggs.
- Scramble until softly set, remove from pan.
- Add a small pat of butter to pan, place a slice of sourdough bread and a slice of cheddar.
- Scoop out a fourth of the bacon and egg mixture and spread evenly across the bread.
- Top with a slice of mozzarella and the other slice of bread.
- Flip once the bread is lightly browned and cook on the other side until the bread is golden and cheese is melted.
- Repeat with the other slices of bread and serve with slices of cooked bacon.
Notes
You can make these ahead, then wrap individually in parchment paper and freeze in a ziplock bag. When you’re ready to eat them, pop them in the microwave for 1:30 minutes or until cheese is melted.
