Toad in the Hole
Description
Toad in the Hole consists of a single slice of bread with a circular hole cut from its center placed in a buttered skillet. An egg is cracked directly into the hole, cooking over medium heat until the bread turns lightly browned and the egg white sets but the yolk remains slightly runny.
The cooking method involves melting butter in the pan and cooking the bread and egg from one side, then flipping it carefully to finish cooking. Salt and black pepper are added to taste once cooked. The result is a toast with a cooked egg sitting neatly in the middle.
This dish serves as a quick and convenient breakfast or snack. It can be prepared in batches using an electric griddle and stored refrigerated for 1-2 days. Leftovers reheat best in a toaster oven, broiler, or frying pan to maintain texture.
Ingredients
- 1 lice bread
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 large egg
- salt to taste

Instructions
- In a small skillet, melt butter. In the middle of your bread, cut a 3-inch hole and place in the skillet.
- Crack egg and pour in the hole. Cook over medium heat for about 2 minutes or until the bread is lightly browned. Turn and cook the other side until egg yolk is almost set. Season as desired with salt and pepper. Enjoy warm.
Notes
