If I get lazy or the butter is too hard I'm forced to melt it in the pan first. lol, funny thread. I've been making them since I left home...a good 33 years. Eggs and bread, cheap and filling!

Yeah, there's a name for it, and I can't remember it. Something about a birds nest or something. I think it's a Brit thing.I butter my pan first. Then wipe the bread around in it.

Eggs in a basket is what it's called where I'm from

Your right! I have heard it called that and a birds nest. Egg in the basket - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Overread, what do they call eggs cooked into a hole cut int the center of a piece of bread?
.

I've no idea - never even heard of it.
I mean we have fried bread and toast and you could put a fried egg onto either of those - but to put the egg into a hole in the bread - sounds like bagel which would be US side

Trever1t · Sep 20, 2011

No, no. This is a dish...take sliced bread, cut a 2" hole in the middle after buttering both sides, place in hot pan, drop egg in middle, flip.

Seems like a lot of trouble to go through for an egg and toast :?

Bitter Jeweler · Sep 20, 2011

Takes no more time than making eggs and toast any other way.

Trever1t · Sep 20, 2011

It's easier because you toast and cook eggs all in one pan and the egg runs all over the toast (when you cut into it) making for a nice buttery yoke filled fun food!

That egg cooked in a slice of bread thing is discussed briefly in the film "V for Vendetta". It's known by MANY different names around the world, according to this article on Wikipedia:Egg in the basket - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My vote was for bagel +cream cheese + filling...I have access to good, fresh, baked-daily bagels made the "right way", so that really helps. I make my own smoked salmon, which is superb when served that way.

I like a small, thin sausage patty fried, with a fried egg cooked in a round, a thin slice of Tillamook cheddar cheese, served in between lightly toasted English muffin halves, or a split bagel. Sort of a homemade sausage egg McMuffin, but made with better ingredients and real cheese and without 1,100 milligrams of sodium...

French Toast made with stale, THICK SLABS cut out of a loaf of French bread is awfully good...put some butter into a seasoned cast iron pan and turn the burner on and let the butter brown...meanwhile whisk or fork together a jumbo egg and some half and half, some sugar, some nutmeg, and some cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Cut the top and bottom crusts off of the end of a loaf of stale,not fresh, French bread. Split the bread. Dip the two pieces into the egg mixture, then fry, flip, fry, serve. I can make this in about six minutes, ready to plate. Is that fast enough?
