Toad in the Hole Recipe ~ Get Creative with a Fried Egg

toad in the hole

These fried eggs (dubbed Toad in the Hole) are one of our favorite breakfast recipes.  Plus they are super easy and quick -both things I look for in recipes.

The recipe is very simple:

  • Tear a circle out of the middle of a piece of bread (or use a biscuit or cookie cutter).
  • Slather butter on both sides of the remaining bread (like you would for a grilled cheese sandwich).
  • Put the bread into a hot pan (with some melted butter), then crack an egg so that the yolk is in the middle of the hole you made.
  • “Pop” the egg white so it leaks onto the bread.
  • Sprinkle with a pinch of Italian Seasoning.
  • Flip over when egg is looking firm and continue to cook until both sides of the bread are toasted and the egg is cooked.
  • Serve and enjoy!

      I like that name better! Makes more sense, but this is what my husband’s family has called it forever…
