Ingredients
Scale
- 4 thick slices of Whole Grain or White Sandwich Bread
- 4 Large Eggs
- 1 cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Take each slice of bread and use a circular cookie cutter or the rim of a small glass to press a hole directly into the center of the slice. Place the bread frames onto the prepared baking sheet. Do not discard the circular cutouts; you can toast those right alongside the bread for dipping.
- Carefully crack one egg into the center of each bread hole. If some egg white spills over the edge, don’t worry, it will still taste delicious. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously over the bread edges, leaving the yolk exposed if you want that classic look, or covering the whole thing for extra cheesiness. Place the tray in the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. At the 8-minute mark, the yolks will be slightly runny; at 10 minutes, they will be fully set.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the toasts cool for one minute so the cheese firms up. Use a spatula to lift each slice onto a plate. Serve immediately while the cheese is melty and the bread is crisp. You can cut the toast into strips or “soldiers” to make it even easier for younger children to eat quickly before the bus arrives.
- Cook Time: 15 minutes
