  4. Pour the batter into the greased skillet.

  6. While the cornbread is baking, cook the bacon in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until it becomes crispy.

  7. Turn off the heat and transfer the cooked bacon onto a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat.

  8. Spread cheese on top of the baked cornbread.

  9. Crack the eggs onto the cornbread, making sure to distribute them evenly.
