Egg in the Basket, Egg in the Basket, My mom used to make thes now I make these I am still living with my mom if I didt that would we very weird, This was my favorite breakfast growing up (NJ), and still is, except we call it eggy on the island I like to use maiers Italian bread or equivalent, small square sandwich bread just doesn’t cut it, and I’m not one to just have sourdough bread lieing around I just take a shot glass to make the hole I put butter in the pan and let bread toast on one side, and then I flip it over, add butter and egg to the hole, and so the other side toasts while egg cooks If I don’t, then I feel like the side with the egg doesn’t toast well enough Enjoy!
