1 cup sharp Cheddar, coarsely grated
3 ounce Canadian bacon, sliced
4 slices firm white bread
2 large eggs
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Arrange half of cheese, then all of bacon on 2 slices of bread. Top with remaining cheese and bread.
Beat eggs with salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Dip sandwiches in egg mixture, carefully turning over several times and pressing lightly, until all of egg mixture is absorbed.
Heat butter in a 10-inch skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides. Transfer sandwiches with a spatula to skillet and cook until golden brown on bottom, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn over sandwiches, pressing lightly, and cook until golden brown on bottom, 3 to 4 minutes more.
