By adding eggs and bacon to your grilled cheese, you can turn it into a tasty breakfast sandwich. This waffled breakfast grilled cheese sandwich has just the right amount of sweet and savory, with a touch of maple.
Ingredients: 4 slices of bread. 4 slices of American cheese. 4 slices of cooked bacon. 4 large eggs. 2 tablespoons butter. Salt and pepper to taste. Maple syrup for dipping optional.
Instructions: Preheat your waffle iron. Place a slice of bread on a clean surface and top with a slice of American cheese and a slice of cooked bacon. In a separate pan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack one large egg into a small bowl, and carefully slide it onto the melted butter in the pan. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook the egg until the whites are set, and the yolk is still slightly runny, about 2-3 minutes. You can cover the pan for faster cooking. Carefully transfer the fried egg onto the bacon and cheese stack on the bread. Top with another slice of American cheese and another slice of bread to make a sandwich. Repeat steps 4-7 for the remaining eggs, creating a total of 4 sandwiches. Place each sandwich in the preheated waffle iron and cook until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the waffled breakfast grilled cheese sandwiches from the waffle iron and let them cool for a minute. Cut the sandwiches in half diagonally, and serve them warm with maple syrup for dipping if desired.
