What is egg in a hole?
Just in case you’re not familiar with egg in a hole, it’s pretty easy to explain: It’s an egg. In a hole.
It’s literally just an egg cooked inside a piece of toast. And it’s as wonderfully simple, and as wonderfully delicious, as it sounds. Sometimes the simplest things really are the best.
There are all sorts of other names for this dish, depending on where in the world you live. You may know it as ‘egg in a basket’, or even as ‘toad in the hole’ (though in the UK this means something different!).
These egg in a hole breakfast sandwiches combine a simple egg in a hole with a few additional ingredients to make a hearty, flavourful toasted sandwich that’s perfect for breakfast.
What else can you put in breakfast sandwiches?
These breakfast sandwiches are seriously easy to customise. You could make them differently every time, if you’re not a creature of habit like I am.
Basically, any breakfast food can go in a sandwich. Here are a few ideas:
- vegetarian sausages or vegetarian bacon (pre-cook them before adding to the sandwich)
- sautéed mushrooms
- a spoonful of British-style baked beans
- wilted spinach
You could even swap the toast for a large English muffin, a waffle, or a bagel, for a bit of a change!
