Over Easy Egg In A Basket Recipes

EGG IN THE BASKET

Steps:

• Cut a circle in the middle of a piece of bread.
• If you don't have a round cookie cutter, the top of a glass will work.
• Heat a skillet or griddle sprayed with Pam or Mazola.
• Place the bread in the pan.
• Put about 1/2 t butter in the hole in the bread.
• Heat the butter until very hot.
• Crack an egg in the hole.
• Use a spatula to move the white around so it gets done.
• When the egg is fairly well set, turn the bread and egg over to cook the other side, being careful not to break the yolk.
• In the meantime, toast the holes from the bread for dipping in the yolk.
• Oh, and salt and pepper as desired.
• I guess you could toast the bread before you put it in the pan, but I've never tried it that way.

EGGS IN A BASKET

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a large 6-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
• Mix potatoes, melted butter, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl.
• Divide potato mixture among muffin cups. Press to create a thin crust over the bottom and up the sides of each cup.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are a light golden brown and potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Crack an egg gently into each cup. Continue cooking until egg whites are set and yolk is runny, about 6 minutes. Remove from the oven; cover eggs with provolone cheese.
• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Toss prosciutto with maple syrup and pepper in a small bowl. Spread out on a small baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
• Place muffin tin and baking sheet under the preheated broiler. Broil until cheese is melted and prosciutto is crisp, about 1 minute.
• Transfer egg baskets to a serving plate. Chop prosciutto and sprinkle on top.

OVER EASY EGG

Steps:

• Gently flip the egg with a spatula being careful not to break the yolk. Cook for another 15 to 20 seconds or to your desired doneness, being sure that the yolk remains liquid.
• Transfer the egg to a plate, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
