How to Make A Hole In One Breakfast A La Midwest Living

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly grease a small oven-safe skillet or baking dish.
  3. Cut a circle out of the center of two slices of bread using a biscuit cutter or small glass. Set aside the bread circles.

  5. Place the bread slices (without the circles) into the skillet. Crack one egg into each hole.
  6. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the eggs and top with the reserved bacon and sausage.
  7. Place the reserved bread circles on top of the eggs.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking and the bread is golden brown.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy!
