How to Make Eggs With Hats On Top

  1. Using a drinking glass, cut a hole in the center of 2 slices of bread (about 2-3 inches in diameter).
  2. Carefully remove and save the circular cutouts.
  3. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a medium-sized skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Place the bread slices (with holes) and the circular cutouts into the skillet.
  5. Crack 1 egg into each hole in the bread slices.
  6. Cover the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the bread is lightly browned on the bottom.
  7. Carefully flip the bread slices and the circular cutouts. Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the eggs are cooked through.
  8. Place the circular bread cutouts on top of the cooked eggs as ‘hats’.
  9. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
