Egg-in-a-Hole

This hardly needs a recipe to describe what you do or what it is, but I've always thought this was a fun breakfast, and kids tend to love it.

Egg-in-a-Hole
printable version

Using a small-mouthed cup or small biscuit cutter, make a hole in a slice of bread (small enough to keep the crust intact).
Place bread in frying pan or on griddle and make sure edges are flat against surface (to prevent leakage).
Crack an egg into the hole! My kids seem to appreciate it when I whisk the egg first. They have an aversion to fried egg whites.
Fry a couple minutes on each side ora few minutes one side with a lid over the top.

We like to toast the leftover bread circles, too. It's fairly easy to mix up a little french toast egg stuff and do the bread circles that way--on the days that's worth your time/effort. 
You can eat these plain, buttered, with syrup or sprinkled with cheese.
