Instructions

  1. Cut a hole in a slice of bread. Use a biscuit or cookie cutter, the rim of a glass, or a knife to cut the hole.
  2. Heat the butter over medium heat in a heavy pan. When the butter melts, add both pieces of bread.
  3. Crack the egg into the hole in the bread. Try not to break the yolk when cracking. Add a small pinch of salt to the top of the egg.
  4. Watch the egg as it cooks. When the whites are mostly cooked through, flip the bread, taking care not to break the yolk.
  5. Cook to desired doneness. For a runny, over-easy yolk, cook about 30 more seconds, about a minute for over-medium, and about 1 ½ minutes for well-done eggs. (Times are approximate, and will depend on how hot your pan is.)
