Notes
- Storage: Egg in a hole is best served fresh.
- Large, square pieces of white or brioche bread work best for this recipe.
- Use a large cookie cutter or the top of a glass to cut a hole in the center of the bread. Be careful not to make the hole too large, or the bread cab become flimsy and fall apart.
