Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
While the bacon is cooking, wash and pat the lettuce leaves dry, and slice the tomato into thin slices.
In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack an egg into the skillet, season with a pinch of salt and black pepper, and cook until the whites are set and the yolk is cooked to your desired doneness (sunny-side up or over-easy). Repeat with the second egg. Set the cooked eggs aside.
Toast the bread slices in a toaster or skillet until golden brown. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice if toasting in a skillet.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of two slices of toasted bread for the base of the sandwiches.
Layer each sandwich as follows: 1 lettuce leaf, 2 tomato slices, 2 slices of cooked bacon, 1 fried egg, and 1 slice of cheddar cheese. Top with the second slice of bread.
Optionally, gently press the sandwich to slightly melt the cheese using the residual heat from the sandwich ingredients.
Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your BLT Fried Egg and Cheese Sandwich!
