French Toast Variation of Eggs in a Basket Recipe

French Toast Variation of Eggs in a Basket Recipe

  • 8 eggs, divided
  • 4 slices bread
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  1. Whisk 4 eggs together in a bowl.
  2. Cut 2-inch holes out of the center of each bread slice, reserving the cut-outs.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  4. Dip bread into the whisked eggs, covering completely on both sides. Place each piece of dipped bread, 1 at a time, into the hot skillet; immediately crack an egg into the hole of the bread. Cook until egg is over-easy, about 1 minute per side.
  5. Dip the bread cut-outs into the remaining whisked eggs and cook in the hot skillet until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Place the centers back into the center of each piece of bread to complete the top of the “basket”.
