This is one of the many dishes I’ve been making for years that’s never graced The Rose Table because I never think to take pictures of it. A dish by many names, Frog in a Hole is fried eggs cooked inside cute little toast packages.

This takes less than five minutes to throw together. I eat it often when I have bread to eat up. You want fairly thin bread slices since the eggs only take a few minutes to cook. And for heaven’s sake, don’t overcook the eggs! You want set egg whites but runny yolk. That’s breakfast perfection.

Frog in a Hole
1 Tbsp butter
2 slices of bread
2 eggs
Sea salt, black pepper
Chives

  1. Use a glass to cut rounds out of the center of each bread slice. Crack eggs into measuring cups.
  2. Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  3. When butter is bubbling, set bread slices in skillet. Fry for one minute then pour egg into each round. Fry for 1-2 minutes until egg white is set but yolks are still runny.
  4. Carefully flip the bread slices and fry for one more minute. You want the yolks to still be runny! Transfer to a plate and enjoy. Don’t forget to toast the rounds in the skillet too! You’ll want the rounds to sop up all of that perfectly cooked egg . Delicious served with bacon and fruit!
