I have such fond memories of my dad making these for us when we were little, I want to give C similar memories. I remember them being so deliciously buttery (though I think my dad probably used margarine). The fried bread circle was always my favorite part. When I was very young I think I requested the yolk broken in cooking because I only liked eggs cooked hard. Sometimes Dad would melt a Kraft single on top.<\/p>\n<p>Today I kept it simple.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/leighadactyl\/13182062194\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"eggs in baskets on skillet\" src=\"https:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3785\/13182062194_2ee13ab0b6.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Egg in a Basket<\/strong><br \/>\nTotal time: 10 minutes<br \/>\nServes: 1<\/p>\n<p>Slice bread<br \/>\nOil or butter<br \/>\n1 Egg<br \/>\nSalt and pepper<\/p>\n<p>Cut a circle in your bread using a wine glass or something else about 2.5 inches in diameter or whatever size seems right to you.
