Recipe: Toasty Egg (otherwise known as Egg-In-The-Hole) from Pioneer Woman
Ingredients:

• Sliced bread (can be any kind: white, wheat, sourdough, rye, etc.)
• Butter
• Large eggs
• Salt
• Black pepper

Preparation:

• Lay the piece of bread down.
• With a biscuit cutter or drinking glass, cut a hole in the center of the bread.
• Heat 2 to 3 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium-low heat.
• Place the bread in the skillet and allow it to soak up the butter.
• After 1 minute, crack a large egg into the hole.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook for another minute.
• Add more butter into the pan, just for kicks.
• With a spatula, flip slice to the other side.
• Move it around in the pan a little bit to allow this side to soak up the butter.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook until it’s cooked to your desire.

I love this recipe! I love eggs. I eat a lot of them for protein since I rarely eat meat and can’t have dairy products. Instead of butter, I used a butter substitute and I just threw some into the pan. I didn’t bother to measure out 2 to 3 tablespoons. My amount was much less than that and it still cooked just fine.This recipe was really easy and the outcome tastes delicious! It reminded me of french toast - just without the added vanilla, cinnamon, milk and syrup. If you want to add more flavor to the recipe you could add the vanilla, cinnamon or just a dollop of your favorite preservative.
