Zubereitung von Egg In The Nest

Chop the bacon into small pieces and cook in a medium-heat skillet until crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside, leaving the bacon grease in the pan.
Using a small bowl or cookie cutter, carefully cut out a circle from the center of each slice of bread, creating a nest.
Place the bread slices (with the center cut out) into the skillet with the bacon grease.
Crack one egg into each bread nest.
Cook the eggs to your desired doneness: sunny-side up, over easy, or over medium. For a fully cooked egg, cover the pan for a minute or two.
While the eggs cook, place the bread circles you cut out into the skillet to toast lightly. Flip them halfway through to brown both sides.
Once the eggs are cooked, carefully remove the Egg in the Nest from the pan.
Top with the crispy bacon and serve immediately.
Enjoy this simple yet charming breakfast that's sure to be a family favorite!
