Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) or set your broiler to a medium-high setting.
Spread the butter evenly on one side of each bread slice.
Place the bread slices, buttered side down, on a baking sheet.
Grate the cheddar cheese or cut it into thin slices and layer it evenly on top of the bread.
Cut the tomato into thin slices and arrange them over the cheese on each slice of bread.
Sprinkle salt, pepper, and dried oregano evenly over the tomato slices.
Place the baking sheet in the oven or under the broiler. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the bread are golden brown.
Remove from the oven. Allow the toast to cool for a minute.
Cut the toast into halves or quarters if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your classic cheese and tomato toast!
