Egginavocadohole Recipes

Steps:

• Next time you make an egg-in-a-hole, consider using avocado instead of bread: Cut an avocado in half, remove the pit and scoop out about 1 tablespoon of flesh from each half. Season with salt and pepper and nestle the halves cut-side up in a small pile of salt on a baking sheet so they won't wobble. Crack a medium egg into each (a large egg will overflow). Season with salt and bake at 425 degrees F until the white is just set, 16 to 18 minutes; top with pico de gallo and crushed tortilla chips.

Steps:

• In a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside. Drain the grease from the skillet but do not clean. When cool enough to handle, tear the bacon slices in half.
• Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise and hot sauce to taste in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, cut a hole in the center of each Texas toast slice.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the bacon skillet and add 2 of the Texas toast slices. Toast the bread slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Crack an egg into the hole in each piece of toast and sprinkle the eggs with salt and pepper. Cook the eggs until set on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a spatula, carefully flip the toast with the egg, season the other side and spread with the mayonnaise mixture. Top each with a slice of cheese to slightly melt and cook until the egg is the desired doneness. Remove to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining butter, toast, eggs, mayo mixture and cheese.
• To build the sandwiches, divide the bacon between 2 of the egg-in-a-hole toast pieces, on top of the cheese. Top each with some tomato slices and lettuce, then top with a remaining egg-in-a-hole toast piece. Serve immediately or wrap in foil to keep warm.

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, turning halfway through, until browned and crisp, 8-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, use cutter to punch out a circle in the center of each piece of bread (save for snacking, now or later).
• Transfer bacon to a cutting board; cut in half crosswise. Carefully pour half of bacon drippings into a small bowl. Place 2 slices of bread in skillet and cook over medium-high until bottom sides are golden brown, about 3 minutes.
• Crack an egg into each hole in bread (some of the white may pool on top of the bread). Season eggs with salt and pepper and cook until underside is set, about 2 minutes. Using a thin spatula (a fish spatula works best), carefully turn both pieces of bread to briefly cook second side (this helps set the whites, but the yolk should still be runny), about 1 minute. Add 1 Tbsp. butter to skillet and swirl skillet to distribute, encouraging some to get underneath. Carefully turn bread again. Top one slice with half of the cheese. Remove pan from heat and let sit about 1 minute to soften cheese. Top with half of bacon and some hot sauce. Close up sandwich and transfer to a plate. Repeat process with remaining bacon drippings, bread, eggs, butter, bacon, and cheese and more hot sauce to make another sandwich.

Steps:

• Melt the bacon grease in a non-stick pan over low heat.
• Cut a 1 1/2 to 2-inch hole from the center of the bread slice; lay in the hot skillet. When the side facing down is lightly toasted, about 2 minutes, flip and crack the egg into the hole; season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook until the egg is cooked and mostly firm. Flip again and cook 1 minute more to assure doneness on both sides. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat a non-stick skillet to medium low heat.
• Lightly spray with oil.
• Slice an avocado with the skin ON lengthwise, forming 1 or 2 thick slice in the middle.
• You will have some leftover avocado pieces - so, Make some bonus guacamole if you want! Guacamole for Breakfast? Why NOT?.
• Remove the seed and use a small cookie cutter to make a hole in the center of your thick slice big enough for your egg.
• Place the avocado slice in the pan. Crack your egg into the center of the hole.
• Cover and cook for a minute or two, until the egg is as you like it.
• Season with salt and pepper and serve.
• Alternatively you can leave the skin on the avocado and place the egg(s) in the hole and bake at 350°F This takes much longer, about 30+ minutes. However, if you were feeding a crowd would be easier.
