Ingredients
- 2 slices gluten-free bread
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 slice cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 4 pieces spinach leaves
Directions
Step 1
Begin by spreading 1/2 tablespoon of butter over one side of each slice of gluten-free bread.
Step 2
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the buttered side of one slice of bread down in the skillet.
Step 3
Top the bread with a slice of cheddar cheese. Allow it to melt slightly while preparing the egg.
Step 4
In a small bowl, beat the egg with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 5
In another small pan, heat the remaining butter over medium heat. Add the beaten egg and cook for 2-3 minutes, flipping halfway, until fully set.
Step 6
Place the cooked egg on top of the melting cheese.
Step 7
Layer spinach leaves over the egg, then place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side facing up.
Step 8
Cook the sandwich for 2-3 minutes on each side, pressing down gently with a spatula, until both sides are golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Step 9
Remove from the skillet and let cool for a minute. Spread mayonnaise on the inside of one slice if desired.
Step 10
Cut the sandwich in half and serve. Enjoy your delicious gluten-free egg and cheese sandwich!
