These Irish Cheese Toasties are a deliciously rich and cheesy snack or light meal, featuring aged Irish cheddar melted over buttered bread with a savory egg mixture. Baked until golden and puffed, they offer a perfect combination of creamy, tangy, and savory flavors, garnished with fresh chives for a bright finish.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Toasties

  • 6 slices bread (brown, potato, white, multi-grain)
  • 2 tablespoons softened butter

For the Cheese Mixture

  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 7–8 ounces aged Irish cheddar, shredded (or sharp cheddar)
  • ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped chive

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a large baking sheet for toasting the bread.
  2. Prepare the Bread: Lay the slices of bread on the baking sheet. Using softened butter, gently spread it over the top sides of the bread slices, then flip each slice so the buttered side is down on the baking sheet.
  3. Mix the Cheese Topping: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and cracked black pepper to combine evenly.
  4. Assemble the Toasties: Spoon the cheese mixture evenly over each piece of bread, spreading it out into a smooth, even layer.
  5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 12 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are golden and the cheese mixture in the center has puffed up.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove the toasties from the oven, sprinkle immediately with fresh chopped chives, and serve while hot and melty.

Notes

  • If aged Irish cheddar is unavailable, use extra sharp cheddar or another flavorful cheese that melts well.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor as the topping is at its creamiest hot out of the oven.
  • You can experiment with different bread types for varied textures and flavors.
