Servings: 2 sandwiches
- 2 large eggs
- 4 slices center cut bacon cooked
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 1 tablespoon basil pesto
- 2 tablespoon spreadable butter
- 2 sliced gouda or cheddar cheese
Prepare the pan. Spray a medium non-stick skillet with cooking spray or lightly coat with butter. Heat pan over medium heat.
Prep the bread. While the pan is heating, spread one side of each slice of bread with butter. Spread the pesto on the non-butter side of two slices of the bread and place in the pan, buttered side down.
Cook the eggs. While the bread starts to toast, crack the eggs into the pan and cook for 1 minute. Lightly pierce the yolk of each egg with the corner of a spatula. Cook for an additional minute. Carefully flip the eggs. It's OK if they fold over slightly. Cook for 1 more minute.
Finish the sandwiches. Once the eggs are cooked, top each slice of bread with an egg, two slices of bacon and a slice of cheese. Place the additional slice of bread on the top of each sandwich, with the buttered side facing out. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan and serve immediately.
