In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded sharp cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and diced pimentos.
Add garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the cheese mixture.
Stir the ingredients together until well mixed, making sure the spices and pimentos are evenly distributed throughout the cheese spread.
Lay out the slices of gluten-free bread on a clean work surface.
Spread a generous amount of pimento cheese mixture onto 4 slices of the gluten-free bread.
Top with the remaining bread slices to form 4 sandwiches.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Place sandwiches in the skillet and cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese mixture is warm and slightly melted.
Remove from skillet, slice the sandwiches in half if desired, and serve immediately.
