Egg Bread

"A simple, kid-friendly recipe. My mother-in-law taught me this one and I made it for our four children for years. Now I make it for my grandsons. They all love the toast circles that come with this."

  1. This is really yummy. So quick and easy and you get your "egg on toast" all in the same pan :)
     
  2. These are delicious as breakfast (or as an energy booster while studying)! I used olive oil and brushed the entire surface of my pan because my mum doesn't have a non-stick one. Honestly, I was too chicken to flip my bread because I was afraid that the egg would spill, so when the bottom was set I stuck it in my toaster for another minute for the top to cook. I'll be making this for breakfast more often! Thanks:)
     
  3. Never had this before so obviously I have been missing out!! Great and easy, thanks for the recipe!
     
  4. I make this all the time! I've always called it "Egg in a hole." Anyhow, on holidays, I use cookie cutters to make fun shapes. I made Christmas trees this past Christmas, and they were so cute!
     
  5. I had this recipe for the first time when I lived overseas in the Ukraine. We used really thick bread and rubbed it with a piece of garlic before putting it in the pan. Delicious
