A knife-and-fork situation, with plenty of crunch and gooey, melty textures going on.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 4 Servings

Ingredients

2

tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more, room temperature, for bread

8

slices cranberry-walnut or country-style bread

6

ounces raclette or Gruyère, grated

4

large eggs

Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

Truffle honey or regular honey (for serving)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 300°. Heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium. Butter one side of each slice of bread and place 4 slices in skillet, buttered side down. Top bread with cheese, reduce heat to low, and cook until underside is golden brown and cheese is melted, about 4 minutes.

    Step 2

    Top with remaining bread, buttered side up, turn sandwiches and cook until second side is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer sandwiches to a rimmed baking sheet and place in oven to keep warm.

    Step 3

    Melt remaining 2 Tbsp. butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into skillet; season with salt and pepper. Cook until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes.

    Step 4

    Drizzle sandwiches with honey and top each with a fried egg.
