Easy Skillet Egg Toast

Equipment
- 1 drinking glass
- 1 nonstick skillet
- 1 toothpick
- 1 spatula
Ingredients
- 2 slices sandwich bread white bread or whole wheat
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter more if needed
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon white pepper
- 1 teaspoon parsley chopped
Instructions
- Use a drinking glass to cut a round hole in the center of each slice of bread. Set the bread centers aside, because you will use them later.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over low to medium heat and add a little of the butter. Once the butter melts, place the bread slices in the skillet and let them start to toast lightly.
- Carefully crack one egg into the center of each slice, adding a little of the egg white first and then the rest of the egg. This helps the egg settle more evenly into the opening.
- Season each toast with salt and white pepper. Use a toothpick to gently mix the egg white, yolk, and seasonings together inside the center of the bread, being careful not to let the egg spill over the edges.
- Sprinkle chopped parsley over the top for extra flavor and a fresh finish.
- Place the reserved bread centers back on top, covering the egg mixture. Add a little more butter on top if needed, then continue cooking until the bread is golden and crisp on the outside and the egg is cooked through but still soft inside.
- Carefully remove the toasts from the skillet and serve immediately while hot.
