Big Oven Recipe Software

6 slices bread; whole wheat or white
6 large eggs
3 T. butter or margarine

1. Lightly butter both sides of bread.
2. Use cookie cutters or tear out a hole in the center of the bread slice.
3. Heat skillet, and place bread in skillet. Crack egg & drop into the bread hole.
4. Cook until egg looks half cooked. Carefully flip bread/egg to other side; cook until egg white is cooked, but not overcooked, if you want a runny yolk.
5. You can cook bread round at the same time; or, dip it in an egg/milk/sugar & cinnamon mixture for a small piece of french toast.
6. Top bread/egg with cheese, if you like.
Enjoy this breakfast tradition. :)
