French Toast Cheddar Sandwiches are a twist on the traditional French toast, where a savory filling is added between two slices of bread and then dipped in an egg mixture and cooked until golden brown. This sandwich adds a layer of cheddar cheese and prepared mustard for extra flavor and protein. It is perfect for a weekend brunch or weekday lunch, and can be enjoyed with a side of fresh fruit for a complete meal. The sandwich is crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, making it a crowd-pleaser for all ages.

Instructions

1.	In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, and salt.
2.	Place a slice of bread on a cutting board, spread with mustard, and top with a slice of cheddar cheese. Cover with a second slice of bread.
3.	Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet.
4.	Dip both sides of the sandwich in the egg mixture and place in the skillet. Cook until golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes per side.
5.	Repeat with the remaining bread, mustard, cheese, and butter.
6.	Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup or hot sauce.
