Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices of bread 🍞
- 2 large eggs 🥚
- 1 tbsp butter (or oil) 🧈🫒
- Salt 🧂
- Freshly cracked black pepper 🌶️
- Optional: 2 tbsp shredded cheese 🧀
- Optional: chopped chives or parsley 🌿
- Optional: avocado slices 🥑 or tomato slices 🍅
Instructions
- Use a round cookie cutter or a glass to cut a hole (about 2.5–3 cm) from the center of each bread slice.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add half the butter (or oil) to coat the pan.
- Place the bread slices in the skillet and also add the cut-out rounds to the pan.
- Crack one egg into each bread hole; if desired, crack the yolk gently so it sits evenly.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes until the bottom is golden and the egg white begins to set. Season with salt and pepper.
- Carefully flip the toast and cut-outs with a spatula. Add the remaining butter and cook 1–2 more minutes for runny yolks, or longer to firm the yolks.
- If using cheese, sprinkle it over the eggs after flipping so it melts slightly.
- Serve the toasts topped with chopped chives or parsley and optional avocado or tomato slices. Use the toasted cut-outs as a scoop or side.
