Brunch Baked Eggs in a Hole

Brunch Baked Eggs in a Hole

Posted 2016-12-02 by finyfollow

This is #13 in my brunch recipes and this one was salty/sweet, with an egg cut out from the French toast.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Makes: 2 slices - 1 serving

Ingredients
Few tbsp sugar
½ tsp cinnamon
1 - 2 tbsp butter
2 eggs (or 3)
2 slices thick toast or [link http://reviewclue.com.au/brioche-hamburger-rolls-by-la-fournee-doree/ Brioche bun]
1/8 cup milk

Method
  • Preheat the oven to 170°/150° fan forced.

  • Mix the sugar and cinnamon together on a plate, and leave.

  • Melt the butter over a medium heat.

  • Cut a hole in the bun - I used a biscuit cutter, but a small glass would also work.


  • Save the middle circles.


  • Mix one of the eggs and add the milk and a bit of salt.

  • Dip the bread and the two circles in this mixture, but do not allow it to soak in - dip it quite quickly and let the excess egg drain.

  • Cook the four pieces on each side for a few minutes or until they are golden brown.


  • Take them out and dip them in the sugar/cinnamon mixture on each side.

  • Put some baking paper on an ovenproof tray and place the two pieces of bread on them, on a flat surface.

  • Add an egg in the holes of each - I did not want to eat so many eggs, so I used the left over egg mixture in the middle of one of the toasts, to cut down on eggs.


  • Bake for about 15 minutes until the egg whites have set - do not over bake or the yolk will be hard.


  • Add the circles for the last 5 or so minutes.

  • I put a bit of salt on the egg, and you could also pour some maple syrup over the top, though I did not on this occasion.
