Steps:
- With a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, press a hole in the center of the slice of bread.
- Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and melt in the butter. When the butter is all spread out, place the slice of bread in the skillet and crack the egg straight into the center of the hole.
- Cook until the egg sets a bit on the bottom, 30 to 45 seconds. Sprinkle the egg with salt and pepper. After about a minute, flip it over with a spatula and salt and pepper the other side.
- Move the toast around in the skillet, soaking up all of the glorious butter. Let it cook until the yolk feels soft. Here's the key: golden brown toast, white (not browned/burned) whites, soft unbroken yolk. Perfect.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.
- Separate the biscuits and put them on the prepared sheet pan. Brush 8 of the biscuits with the heavy cream. Sprinkle all the biscuits with the Cheddar, then the chives. Put each biscuit brushed with cream on top of an unbrushed biscuit to make 8 biscuit stacks. Space the stacks evenly on the sheet pan. Cut out the center of each stack with a 2-inch round cookie cutter. Put the cut-outs in the empty spaces on the sheet pan.
- Push a slice of ham down into each hole to make a cup that is deep enough to hold an egg comfortably. Crack 1 egg into each of the ham cups and sprinkle with the paprika.
- Bake until the biscuits are flaky and golden brown, the egg whites are just set and the yolks are still jiggly when you lightly shake the sheet pan, about 20 minutes.
- Serve each egg-in-a-hole with one of the biscuit cut-outs for dipping.

A delicious runny yolk egg cooked in the center of a piece of toast and eaten with a fork is a great way to enjoy an egg in a slightly different way. My kids feel fancy when eating these.

Steps:
- Melt the bacon grease in a non-stick pan over low heat.
- Cut a 1 1/2 to 2-inch hole from the center of the bread slice; lay in the hot skillet. When the side facing down is lightly toasted, about 2 minutes, flip and crack the egg into the hole; season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook until the egg is cooked and mostly firm. Flip again and cook 1 minute more to assure doneness on both sides. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Cut a hole in both bread slices with a 2-inch biscuit cutter or the rim of a small glass. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the bread slices, side by side.
- Carefully crack an egg into each bread hole (some white will remain on top). Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook until the eggs begin to set, 2 to 3 minutes; gently flip the egg and bread with a spatula. Continue cooking until eggs are set, 2 to 3 minutes more. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use a biscuit cutter that is slightly smaller than the diameter of your egg. This will help to ensure that the egg white doesn't spread out too much and cook unevenly.
- Make sure the butter or oil is hot enough before adding the egg. This will help to prevent the egg from sticking to the pan.
- Crack the egg directly into the hole in the biscuit. This will help to keep the yolk intact.
- Cook the egg over medium heat. This will help to prevent the biscuit from burning and the egg from overcooking.
- Flip the biscuit halfway through cooking. This will help to ensure that the egg is cooked evenly.
- Season the egg with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the biscuit egg in a hole with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include cheese, salsa, avocado, and hot sauce.
Conclusion:
Biscuit egg in a hole is a quick and easy breakfast that is perfect for busy mornings. It's also a great way to use up leftover biscuits. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
