Eggs with hats
1 serving
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | slices | Bacon; cut in 1/2 |
| 1 | slice | White bread |
| 1 | large | Egg |
| Salt and pepper | ||
Directions
Cut a round hole in the bread with a small juice glass.
Fry the bacon, remove from the pan and set aside, reserving the bacon fat. Fry the small circle of bread on both sides. Meanwhile fry the slice of bread with the hole in it on one side; turn and break the egg into the hole. Season to taste with salt and pepper. By the time the egg sets the bottom of the fried bread should be finished.
Garnish the bread with two horizontal rows and two vertical columns of bacon surrounding the egg in a grid like the grates in a prison window. Top the egg with the small circle of fried bread... the egg's hat.
This also gets called Eggs In Prison.
