Ingredients
  

  • 4 everything bagels split
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 2 scallions finely sliced
  • 1/4 tsp fine salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter divided
  • 4 oz sliced American cheese

Method
 

  1. Heat broiler. Toast bagel halves cut-side up on a sheet 1 to 2 minutes until just golden, watching closely; set aside.
  2. Whisk eggs, milk, scallions, salt, and pepper. Divide cheese into four equal portions.
  3. Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low. Add one-quarter egg mixture; tilt into a thin, even layer.
  4. Cook about 2 minutes until mostly set. Add one cheese portion in center; fold four sides inward into a square. Carefully turn; cook 1 to 2 minutes until egg reaches 160°F and cheese melts.
  5. Slide onto one bagel bottom. Repeat with remaining butter, eggs, and cheese for four bagels.
  6. Close with toasted tops; rest 1 minute. Halve with a serrated knife without flattening eggs.
