For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a smear of Dijon mustard or a drizzle of hot sauce before serving. Experiment with different cheeses! Gruyere, pepper jack, or even a sprinkle of parmesan would be delicious. If you don't have bacon, try using sausage or ham for a different twist.

Follow The Directions
01
StepCrisp the Bacon (7 minutes): Place bacon in a cold nonstick skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crispy and evenly browned. Transfer to paper towels to drain, reserving a teaspoon of bacon fat in the skillet. Roughly chop the bacon.
02
StepPrepare the Eggs: Whisk eggs with salt and pepper in a small bowl until light and frothy.
03
StepCook the Omelet (5 minutes): Melt 2 teaspoons butter in the same nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the beaten eggs; let cook undisturbed for 30 seconds to set the bottom. Gently lift the edges of the omelet, allowing uncooked egg to flow underneath. Tilt and shake the skillet to distribute the uncooked egg evenly. Repeat until the top is almost set, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low.
04
StepAdd Bacon and Cheese (2 minutes): Sprinkle the chopped bacon evenly over the omelet. Top with shredded Cheddar cheese. Allow the cheese to melt slightly, about 1 to 2 minutes.
05
StepAssemble the Sandwich (4 minutes): Butter two slices of bread with 1/2 teaspoon butter each. Carefully lay the buttered bread slices, butter-side up, over the omelet, leaving a small gap between them. The melting cheese will help the bread adhere.
06
StepFlip and Toast (4 minutes): Run a spatula around the edges of the omelet to loosen it from the skillet. Carefully flip the omelet so that the buttered side of the bread is now in contact with the skillet. Cook until the bread is golden brown and toasted, about 2 minutes. Use the spatula to fold in the edges of the omelet to align with the sides of the bread. Cut the omelet in half along the center to create two sandwiches.
07
StepFinal Toast and Serve (2 minutes): Butter the remaining two bread slices with the remaining butter. Place butter-side up on each sandwich. Turn the sandwiches and cook until golden brown and toasted, about 2 minutes more. Serve immediately and enjoy!
