Ingredients
- 1 whole Bagel
- 1 Large egg
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Chives (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Slice the bagel in half horizontally and set aside.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter.
Step 3
Crack the egg into the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until the egg white is set and the yolk reaches your desired doneness, about 3-4 minutes for sunny-side-up or flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes for over-easy.
Step 4
Meanwhile, toast the bagel halves in a toaster or under a broiler until golden brown.
Step 5
Sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over the egg during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
Step 6
Place the cooked egg and melted cheese onto one half of the toasted bagel.
Step 7
Optional: Sprinkle chopped chives over the top for added flavor.
Step 8
Top with the other half of the bagel and serve immediately.
