2 small eggs

Steps:

  • Next time you make an egg-in-a-hole, consider using avocado instead of bread: Cut an avocado in half, remove the pit and scoop out about 1 tablespoon of flesh from each half. Season with salt and pepper and nestle the halves cut-side up in a small pile of salt on a baking sheet so they won't wobble. Crack a medium egg into each (a large egg will overflow). Season with salt and bake at 425 degrees F until the white is just set, 16 to 18 minutes; top with pico de gallo and crushed tortilla chips.

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 slice of your favorite kind of bread
1 tablespoon butter
1 egg
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • With a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, press a hole in the center of the slice of bread.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and melt in the butter. When the butter is all spread out, place the slice of bread in the skillet and crack the egg straight into the center of the hole.
  • Cook until the egg sets a bit on the bottom, 30 to 45 seconds. Sprinkle the egg with salt and pepper. After about a minute, flip it over with a spatula and salt and pepper the other side.
  • Move the toast around in the skillet, soaking up all of the glorious butter. Let it cook until the yolk feels soft. Here's the key: golden brown toast, white (not browned/burned) whites, soft unbroken yolk. Perfect.
