Cooking: Sweet Toad-in-a-Hole

It's called by different names: toad-in-a-hole or egg-in-a-basket.  Whatever you call it, there's a tasty modification that is a good accompaniment with the Sweet and Spicy Turkey Bacon.  It definitely helps keep breakfast from being boring, that's for sure.


I think it should be obvious which of these items is the toad-in-a-hole.  :-P  If not, I'll answer your questions in the comments section or edit this post.

Anyway, making this version of toad-in-a-hole is pretty simple:
1 slice of bread
2 Tbsp. butter, melted
Cinnamon and light brown sugar, to taste

Melt the butter in a skillet large enough for your slice of bread.

With your fingers or a cutting tool, remove a piece of bread out of the middle of the slice.  This should be large enough to accommodate the yolk of the egg.

Place the bread and the "bread hole" in the butter.

Crack the egg, trying to get as much of the yolk as you can into the hole in the slice of bread.

Now sprinkle the whole thing with enough cinnamon and brown sugar to suit your tastes.  When the bread is nice and toasty on one side, flip it over and repeat the cinnamon and brown sugar step.

When you serve this, you won't want any syrup.
