Divide the bagel in half. Use a small round biscuit cutter (or paring knife) to enlarge the hole in the bagels to make room for the eggs, if needed. For a two-egg bagel sandwich enlarge the hole in both side of the bagel. If making a one-egg bagel sandwich, enlarge the hole in the top half of the bagel only. *Note - reserve the bagel hole cutout and fry with butter in the skillet if desired.
Spread butter on both of the cut halves of the bagel and place them cut side down onto the skillet heating over medium/high heat.
Crack one egg into each hole of the bagel and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the eggs start to set (approximately 2-3 minutes). Carefully flip each bagel/egg combo.
Spray each bagel with ghee cooking spray (optional) and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes until the yolk is mostly set.
Gently flip the fried bagels once again and layer the Swiss cheese and ham slices onto the cut side and place the second bagel, cut side down on top of the ham and cheese.
Cook the sandwich for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Remove and keep warm and continue the same process with the second sandwich.
