Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon strips until crispy, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
While the bacon is cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl, add salt and pepper, and whisk them together until well combined.
In another non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and gently stir with a spatula until they begin to set, creating soft scrambled eggs, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice of gluten-free bread.
On one slice of bread, place a slice of cheese, followed by the scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and then another slice of cheese. Place the second slice of bread on top, mayonnaise side down.
In the skillet used for eggs, on medium heat, grill the sandwich, using a spatula to press it down gently. Cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese melts, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly, then slice diagonally and serve warm.
