Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Spread vegan butter evenly on one side of each sourdough bread slice.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds about 1/4 inch thick.
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, onto the skillet.
Layer one slice of vegan cheese on top of the bread in the skillet.
Add slices of tomato on top of the cheese, ensuring even coverage.
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the tomato slices.
Lay basil leaves evenly over the tomatoes.
Place the second slice of vegan cheese over the basil and tomatoes.
Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side up.
Check the bottom slice of bread for a golden brown color and gently flip the sandwich using a spatula.
Allow the other side to cook until it's golden brown and the cheese is melty, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and enjoy your vegan cheese and tomato toastie while hot.
