Toad in the Hole with Bacon

Ingredients

• Bacon

  Raw, cured pork

  3 strip or 36g

• Whole-wheat bread

  Commercially prepared

  1 slice or 28g

• Butter

  Unsalted

  1 tbsp or 14g

• Salt

  Table

  1 dash or 0.4g

• Pepper

  Spices, black

  1 dash or 0.1g

• Egg

  Whole, fresh eggs

  1 large or 50g

Directions

1. Place the bacon in a cold pan over medium heat and cook until it reaches your desired crispiness.
2. Lightly toast the bread and cut a hole in the center.
3. Heat a skillet on medium-low and melt the butter until just bubbly. Place the toast and cutout in the skillet, turning to coat both sides.
4. Break the egg into the center of the hole and cover with a lid. Cook until the egg white is more than half set.
5. Flip the toast and egg for an over-easy egg, or continue cooking with the lid on for sunny side up.
6. Remove to a plate and serve with bacon and the toasted cut-out. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
