Eggs in a Basket



My wife, Amy, loves the 'Eggs in a Basket' dish at Cracker Barrel and wanted to try to make them at home. I have not had them at Cracker Barrel before but these turned out really well. It's part fried eggs and part french toast (I bet they'd be good with some maple syrup!).

Here's how we did it:

Ingredients:

  • 2 slices sourdough bread (we didn't have any but a good Tuscan bread worked fine)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 Tbsp butter (we used Smart Balance)

Process:
Cut 2-3 inch round holes in the center of the bread slices. Heat butter in a frying pan and put in bread slices with holes. Crack 1 egg in each bread hole. Cook for about 1 minute, then flip. Cook on second side for about 1 minute. Serve.

Make sure to use the round bread cut-outs to mop up the extra yolk!
