Egg in a Basket: My New Favorite Breakfast
I first learned about “Eggs in a Basket” while watching “V for Vendetta” one of the best movies ever ( a topic for another post). I remember it looking so yummy and wanting to make it right away. For one reason or another I became very distracted and forgot all about it for a few years. However, in an attempt to add some variety to our menus, I decided to make it one day. My husband had a horrible stomach ache and I remembered that my mom used to make me hard-boiled eggs and toast when my tummy was hurting. Drew’s belly gave my the perfect excuse to try this out.
What You Need
- Bread- (I prefer wheat but we only had white when this photo was taken)
- A Shot glass, small cookie cutter or a champagne glass (which is what I used)
- Butter or something like it.
- 1 egg for every slice of bread used
How You Make It
- Heat non-stick skillet. While pan is warming cut out centers of each bread with cutter (keep the centers and put to the side)
- Place bread in the pan and immediately crack egg into each center
- Let it set (cook) for a few minutes (I like my yolks cooked fully) then flip
- Salt and pepper to taste.
Enjoy!
