Directions

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cut a hole in the center of each slice of bread with a round cookie cutter or the rim of a glass. Place the bread into the hot skillet, crack one egg into the hole of each slice of bread, break the yolk and cook until the white is mostly opaque. Flip the slices of bread over. Form sandwich halves by topping each piece of bread with 1 slice of cheese, a slice of ham, then another slice of cheese. Season with salt and pepper and cook until the eggs are fully set; remove from the skillet.
Make two sandwiches by putting together the halves. Place on a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high until the cheese is fully melted, 30 to 45 seconds.

Original review--Sep. 3, 2011: My family thought this was great! I used whole wheat bread, sliced deli cheddar cheese and sausage patties because that was what I had on hand. You CAN have breakfast sandwiches like this but use lighter counterparts and still enjoy it just the same. HUGE hit with all of us and this was a cute new way for me to eat one of my favorite breakfast foods that I grew up eating as a child. EDITED: I like to make this sandwich with leftover french toast, too (I do make my french toast "lighter" with whole wheat bread and partial egg whites). If you drizzle a little maple syrup in the middle, it's HEAVEN.

Awesome egg sandwich with a really cute name! These were great for breakfast "on the go" and were very filling. I used canadian bacon and cheddar cheese. No need to microwave - these melted just fine. Much better than going to a fast food driv thru and much cheaper too! Thanks for a great recipe!

The first time I made this I was really impressed. I only made one half and served open faced. Now, I make fresh garlic butter to spread on the bread. I fry the "cutout" circle part separately, and then use it to catch any egg yolk that ends up on the plate. That is, if I've managed to cook the egg just right. The best morning comfort food ever! Thanks for sharing!

Love an egg sandwich - any way you make it! This was a very good sandwich. The only thing I did different was use regular size wheat bread because I didn't have any Texas toast. The egg set up nicely in the middle of the bread and it flipped and grilled great. This is a winner. Thanks Rhonda35 for your version of an egg sandwich.

I really loved this recipe. I didn't put it in the microwave at the end though. As soon as I flipped the pieces of bread I put the cheese on the side that just came from the hot side of the griddle and it melted very well. Great idea rhonda35!!!!
