Time 4m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

egg
bread
butter
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Cut a circle in the middle of a piece of bread.
  • If you don't have a round cookie cutter, the top of a glass will work.
  • Heat a skillet or griddle sprayed with Pam or Mazola.
  • Place the bread in the pan.
  • Put about 1/2 t butter in the hole in the bread.
  • Heat the butter until very hot.
  • Crack an egg in the hole.
  • Use a spatula to move the white around so it gets done.
  • When the egg is fairly well set, turn the bread and egg over to cook the other side, being careful not to break the yolk.
  • In the meantime, toast the holes from the bread for dipping in the yolk.
  • Oh, and salt and pepper as desired.
  • I guess you could toast the bread before you put it in the pan, but I've never tried it that way.

Time 45m

Yield 12 egg baskets

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons butter, melted
24 wonton squares
6 slices shaved prosciutto, chopped
12 large eggs
6 tablespoons grated Parmesan
1 roasted red pepper, cut into thin strips
6 slices Brie cheese
12 fresh tarragon leaves
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Brush the muffin cups with butter and line each with 1 wonton square. Brush the squares with more butter and place the second wonton on top of the first at an angle so that all of the points show. Divide the prosciutto among 6 of the muffin cups. Break 1 egg into each muffin cup. Top the 6 with the prosciutto with the Parmesan and, using 2 slices of red pepper each, form an "X" on top of each egg.
  • Top the other 6 eggs with the brie and form an "X" on the top of those with the tarragon leaves. Sprinkle all with a little salt and pepper and place in the bottom half of the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the egg white is firm but yolk still liquid. Remove from the oven and let sit 5 minutes before carefully removing the baskets from the tin. Arrange on a decorative platter and serve immediately.

  • Use a sharp knife to cut the bread so that the edges are clean and even.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the eggs. Give them enough space to cook evenly.
  • Cook the eggs over medium heat so that they cook through without burning.
