We always called it a Toad in a Hole. But we'd always stack ham and cheese over it with the bread piece on the very top. My father was always excited to make them for everyone on the weekends.
11 0 ReplyMy family called these bird nests
9 0 ReplyOne-eyed Jack was what my father called it.
4 0 ReplyOoh, I do like that name as well.

This is what my Dad called it and you are the first person I've ever heard besides him do it.
I wonder if it's regional, are you from NY/New England area?
Sometimes he would also call it "Frog in a Log" but that could have just been him being goofy.
The "official" name I've heard since then is Eggs in a Basket.
4 0 ReplyToad in a hole is sausage in a pie dough, but it seems that name was reused in a limited number of us regions. Egg+bread is egg in a nest in pretty much all other UK colonized regions and in the UK.
8 0 ReplyWe called it “eggs in the basket”
3 0 ReplyGrowing up in New England we called them “egg with a hat”
2 0 ReplyYeah, Eastern Seaboard. Could be Regional.

That's one glamorous bread hole
10 0 ReplyThanks. I'm trying to do a bit more with my presentation. There's a balance between pretty and not enough food and this teeters right on the edge of that in my opinion.
6 0 ReplyI think berries deserve to be in an abundant glistening pile! Two sliced berries is a pretty decoration but leaves me feeling a little sad.

We like to call this Bregg in my house but our doesn't look this fancy. It looks great, although the cut berries seems a little extra.
6 0 ReplyI grew up in the Midwest US and we called this a "Gashouse". No idea why.
5 0 ReplyI also don't know why I grew up in the midwest, but I generally regret it.
(We called it toad in a hole, sausage in croissant dough was pigs in a blanket).

Toad in the hole.... uncultured heathen!
6 2 ReplyI saw someone on Mastodon call it that. You are both a disgrace (sorry). This is toad in the hole (sausages baked in Yorkshire pudding).

Aha I love what you did with the "hole" - I usually just lay it back on top of the egg
4 0 ReplyI make it into garlic bread because why not?

I've just never really understood these at all. The egg/bread ratio in each bite is just off. I'd rather just put the egg on top of the toast and enjoy egg + toast in every bite. What am I missing?
4 0 ReplyYou're not missing anything. It's for children.
5 0 ReplyYeah considering the effort I'll end up just making a poached egg on toast the next time around. I can punch circles out of toast and be fancy without sacrificing flavor.

3 0 ReplyMagnificent! What kind of bread is that?
3 0 ReplyThank you!! It's from the country sourdough loaf I posted yesterday!
4 0 ReplyAbsolutely delicious-looking bread. That’s on my list to try to make, now that I’ve got a nice stand mixer. You killed it!

I’m not sure I should’ve asked for this.
2 0 ReplyPretty but that yolk better not be overcooked!
2 0 ReplyIt broke when I flipped things but it was still jammy inside! Next time I think I'll toast one side of the bread, flip it, then break my egg in and cook things covered so I'm not having to flip things.
2 0 ReplyLooks like the yolk broke while cooking. Some people don't like runny yolks, so it might have been intentional.

Nicest one of these I've ever seen tbh
3 1 ReplyThis is a BEATIFUL dish. I do think more berries would work, but it's a hard to argue with the very nicely balanced and striking presentation.
It screams for a strong berry mimosa accoutrement! 😁
