Fit all 12 slices of bread closely together on the baking mat. Press down using the edge of a teaspoon to create a small rectangular “well” in each slice where the eggs will be cracked. - Brush and Season:
Use a small basting brush to coat the edges of the bread with softened butter. Season these edges thoroughly with your chosen spices. - Add Eggs:
Carefully crack an egg into each well. - Top with Cheese:
Sprinkle shredded cheese generously over the buttered edges of the bread. - Bake:
Place the baking sheet on the top rack of the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. Move the sheet pan to the bottom rack and bake for another 5-10 minutes, depending on how you like your eggs cooked. - Slice and Serve:
Once the bread is golden and the cheese is melted, remove the pan from the oven. Slice the toast and serve warm!

Ingredients
1 dozen eggs
12 slices bread
Softened butter
Seasoning: fresh-ground salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder
1 bag shredded cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Lay a non-stick silicone baking mat in your large baking sheet and spray the edges of your baking sheet with cooking spray (as the bread and cheese will touch the ends).
Arrange your slices of bread on the silicone baking mat, fitting them tightly together.
Use the edge of a teaspoon to press down and make a rectangle in each slice of bread, creating a “well” for the eggs.
With a small basting brush, spread softened butter on the unpressed edges of the bread.
Season the bread thoroughly.
Crack an egg into each well.
Lightly season the eggs.
Generously sprinkle shredded cheese over all the buttered parts of the bread.
Bake on the top rack of the oven for 15-20 minutes.
Move the pan to the bottom rack and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, depending on your preference for how the egg is cooked.
Slice and serve.
