Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread softened butter on each side of the sourdough bread and arrange it on a baking sheet.
  2. Sprinkle a hearty layer of shredded sharp cheddar cheese over each slice of bread.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.
  4. While the cheese is baking, prepare the eggs by frying or poaching them until the whites are set, and the yolks remain runny.
  5. Remove the cheesy toasts from the oven and top each slice with freshly cooked eggs.
  6. Enjoy warm and customize with toppings like avocado or hot sauce.
