In a medium non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, melt one tablespoon butter. While the butter is melting, add eggs to a medium mixing bowl and whisk until well beaten.

Pour the egg mixture into the heated skillet and cook over medium-low heat. As the eggs begin to cook, use a silicone spatula to gently move the cooked eggs to the top of the pan, allowing more liquid eggs to cook underneath. Stir minimally and remove from heat when no liquid egg remains. Leave the eggs in the warm pan to finish cooking.

Divide the scrambled eggs evenly among the slices with American cheese. Bring the two halves of the sandwich together. Serve with the eggs toward the top and the ham toward the bottom while still warm.
