Toad in the Road Is the Perfect Lazy Morning Breakfast
Ingredients
- 1 to 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 slice bread of your choosing
- 1 egg
- Salt, pepper, and hot sauce to taste
Instructions
- In a frying pan, melt butter over medium heat.
- Cut a hole in a piece of bread large enough to fit an egg. I like to use the rim of an 8 ounces jam jar, but get creative and/or resourceful as necessary—cookie cutters, measuring cups, wine glasses, even just tearing a circle with your fingers is fine. Whatever shape you use, save the cutout and set aside—this is called the tire.
- Crack an egg into the bread hole, being careful not to break the yolk. I like to crack the egg into my jam jar to check for shells, then pour into the hole. Season as desired—pepper is key.
