Layer half of the grated cheddar cheese on the plain side of the bread in the skillet.
Spread the baked beans evenly over the cheese layer.
Season the baked beans with a pinch of salt and black pepper for added flavor.
Top the baked beans with the remaining cheese.
Place the second bread slice on top, butter side facing up, to form a sandwich.
