Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 4 slices of bread
  • 4 slices of deli ham
  • 4 slices of cheddar cheese

Instructions

Step 1: Toast the Bread

Begin by taking your slices of bread whether you’ve chosen hearty whole grain or fluffy white. Place them in a toaster or on a skillet. Lightly golden-brown toast provides a perfect canvas for your Egg and Ham Sandwich. Keep an eye on them you want them crispy yet not overdone.

Step 2: Fry the Ham

Next, let’s get that ham sizzling! In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add your ham slices. As they cook, you’ll notice the edges curling and the rich aroma wafting through your kitchen. Flip them after a couple of minutes until they achieve a lovely golden color. This perfectly cooked ham brings depth of flavor to your Egg and Ham Sandwich.

Step 3: Cook the Egg

Using the same skillet, crack an egg into the pan, being cautious not to break the yolk. A sunny-side-up egg will add a luscious and creamy element to your sandwich. Let it cook until the whites are set but the yolk remains wonderfully runny. For a bit of drama, season it with salt and pepper.

Step 4: Assemble the Sandwich

Now comes the exciting part! Start with your toasted bread as the base. Layer on the crispy ham followed by the perfectly cooked egg. Feel free to add some cheese, if you like it gooey and melty. Top it off with another slice of toasted bread. Press down gently to marry those flavors together.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Your Egg and Ham Sandwich is complete and ready to shine! Serve it warm, perhaps with a side of fresh fruit or crispy hash browns. Each bite is sure to ignite your senses and brighten your day.
