Directions:
- Using a glass (drinking cup), or circular cookie cutter that is just smaller than the crust line, cut out a circle inside the slice of bread.
- Heat skillet on the stove over medium-low heat.
- Coat bottom of skillet with butter or non-stick spray so the egg and bread will not stick.
- Place bread ( nest ), with center hole removed, into the skillet.
- Crack the egg into the middle of the hole (you may season the egg with your favorite seasonings, if you like, or leave it plain).
- While Egg in a Nest is cooking, you can toast the circle cut-out of bread, for a small side of toast. Add butter (and honey, or any other topping) to the circle piece of toast as soon as it comes out of the toaster.
- Keeping a close eye on the skillet, remove egg in a nest when egg is cooked to your liking (sunny-side up), OR - Cover skillet with a lid for 2-4 minutes for over-easy, over-medium, or over-hard eggs. Check often to make sure it is cooked to your liking. Every stove-top cooks differently, so use the time frame given as an estimate.
- Remove with spatula.
- Plate, and serve with your little piece of toast!
- **You can also top this with shredded cheese, if you want a more savory meal, or drizzle on some honey for something sweeter. Use forks or fingers! :).
