Andrew’s Eggs in the Hole

Andrew doesn’t cook a whole lot, but he has mastered the art of the perfect egg in a hole. He uses Farm Fresh eggs from his friend Tony–the really good ones with the bright yellow yolks and the fun colored shells. This is a quick protein-filled “snack” after many a night on the football field!

Andrew’s Eggs in the Hole

Melt butter in the bottom of a frying pan. Pull the centers out of the bread, and eat promptly. Put the bread in the pan, carefully break eggs into the middle of the bread, cook on first side about 2 minutes, flip over and cook the second side for another minute or until done to desired firmness, add salt and pepper to taste. Wala–perfect Eggs in the Hole!!

    Growing up my grandma called this Bulls-eye toast. The circle of bread was always toasted and placed on top of the cooked egg.

    Anne's Grandfather made 'eggs in the holes' for friends/relatives as late night snacks. He cut the hole with a juice glass and fried it in butter along with the bread. After adding the egg, he added a dash or two of Worchestershire Sauce. Catsup over all made for a yummy treat.

    Who would have known that 3 generations later, the same snacks are popular!

    Thanks so much for posting this! That picture looks really yummy. It reminds me of when I was a kid, and my dad would make something really similar! He called it a “hole in one” though… but I think it’s probably about the same thing. Great memories!
