Ingredients

  • 3 c cooked turkey
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 c milk
  • 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
  • 8 bread slices
  • 6 tbsp. cranberry sauce, plus more for serving
  • 4 tsp. Dijon mustard, to taste
  • 8 cheddar cheese slices
  • 4 tbsp. butter, plus more as needed
  • 2 tbsp. powdered sugar, optional

Instructions

  1. Slice or shred turkey, if needed. Beat eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish until thoroughly combined.
  2. Lay bread out on work surface. Spread half the slices with 1/4 of the cranberry sauce on each slice. Spread the other half with 1/4 of the Dijon mustard, or to taste.
  3. Place a slice of cheese on each piece of bread. Top half the slices with turkey.
  4. Place remaining slices of bread on top of each sandwich and give them a good squish to compact them.
  5. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  6. Dip each sandwich in egg mixture. Once sandwich is fully coated, place in hot pan. Repeat with remaining sandwiches.
  7. Don't overcrowd pan; the sandwiches may need to be cooked in batches. Add more butter as needed.
  8. Cook sandwiches for approximately 5 minutes on each side. Press down on sandwiches with spatula as they cook.
  9. They are done when they are golden brown and cheese is melted. Remove to serving plates.
  10. Place powdered sugar in a fine-mesh sieve and gently tap the side to sprinkle a dusting of sugar on top of each sandwich.
  11. Serve with extra cranberry sauce on the side, if desired. Enjoy!
