Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Generously butter one side of each slice of bread and place the pieces buttered-side down on a baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper. Stir in the cheese, making sure the egg mixture evenly coats the shredded pieces.
Remove the toasts from the oven and divide the cheese mixture over the top of the four pieces of bread, taking care to spread it to the edges of each slice.
Bake until puffed and golden brown, 12 - 15 minutes. Serve warm.
