Egg + Bread = Egg in the hole

I have a favor to ask each of you.  You will thank me for it later.  Please go make one and see for yourself.  You will most likely moan from it's goodness just as much as I did when I first tried one.  Dipping my toast in my egg is so over.




I hope you find as much joy as I do when you crack the egg and nestle it in the center.
P.S. I just made one for dinner


Recipe from Pioneer Woman:

Ingredients

  • 1 slice Of Your Favorite Kind Of Bread
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • 1 whole Egg
  • Salt To Taste
  • Pepper To Taste

Preparation Instructions

With a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, press a hole in the center of the slice of bread.
Next, heat a skillet over medium-low heat and melt a Tablespoon of butter in it. When the butter is all spread out, place the piece of bread in the skillet and crack the egg straight into the center of hole.
Cook for at least 30 seconds or so before attempting to move the bread or things could get messy. Sprinkle the egg with salt and pepper to taste. After about a minute, flip it over with a spatula and salt and pepper the other side.
Now move the whole piece of toast around the skillet, soaking up all of the glorious butter. Let it cook until the yolk feels, to the touch, still soft without feeling over-jiggly. Here’s the key: golden brown toast, white (not brown/burned) whites, soft unbroken yolk.
