BREAKFAST BIRD'S NEST



Breakfast Bird's Nest image

My grandmother and mom both made these for me when I was very little and now I make them for my little ones. They love their eggs made this way. Some people call them "egg in a window", but my mom always called them "bird's nests". Kids love them, but I still make them for myself :) There's just something yummier about the "dipping" toast being fried in butter instead of just popped in the toaster, and after dipping, the egg white tastes great with the fried bread from the "nest".

Tips:

  • To make the egg nests, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Heat a little butter in a skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of the egg mixture into the skillet for each nest. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • To assemble the birds' nests, place a bread bowl on a plate. Fill the center of the bowl with a cooked egg nest. Top with your favorite breakfast toppings, such as bacon, sausage, cheese, or avocado.
  • For a fun twist, try making the birds' nests with different types of bread, such as croissants, English muffins, or bagels.
  • You can also add your favorite herbs and spices to the egg mixture for extra flavor.
