Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole Bagel
- 1 can Spam
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to broil on high.
Slice the bagels in half to create four halves, and lightly toast them in a toaster or toaster oven until just golden.
Cut the Spam into 8 even slices (approximately 1/4-inch thick).
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
Fry the Spam slices in the butter for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until crispy and golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Grate the cheddar cheese and have it ready for assembly.
Place the toasted bagel halves cut-side up on a baking sheet.
Lay 2 slices of fried Spam on each bagel half.
Sprinkle approximately 1/4 cup of grated cheddar cheese on top of each bagel half, covering the Spam slices.
If desired, sprinkle a tiny pinch of black pepper on top for an extra kick of flavor.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 1-2 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Broiled Cheese Spamgel!
