This delicious and easy breakfast dish goes by many names. I have always called it Toad in a Hole, but feel free to name it whatever you wish!
I think the first time I had this dish was at a friend’s home. They called it Toad in a Hole so that’s what I call it! It stuck with me and is still one of my favorite breakfasts.
What is better than a big slice of sourdough, saturated in butter, with an egg cooked into it? Nothing, that’s what.
I love to add a bunch of sautéed kale and some avocado to make this extra satisfying and pretty. I am curious, what do you call this dish?
My kids LOVE eating the little rounds of “toast.” Don’t skip that part!
