Lightened Up Eggs In A Hole

Easy, lightened up version of one of my favorite breakfasts growing up. Minimal ingredients and takes only 5 miutes to make! This was a childhood favorite of mine, and being able to make it for such low WW points and lightened up has made this delicious, easy breakfast a staple!

First things first, naming this breakfast was harder than actaully making it! SO many variations for this simple, delicious low point breakfast. Growing up my mom called it “eggs in a hat” but I’m starting to think she made that up herself. From asking others the most common names were eggs in a hole (thats my favorite because its the most obvious), eggs in a basket, toad in a hole, eggs in a nest, eggs in a frame, and so man others. My mom made this ALL the time growing up, and it was even a vacation staple that she would make for the whole family each morning! So when I started doing WW and realized I could make it for only TWO points, I was so excited!

What You’ll Need

  • 2 SLICES 647 bread (or any low point bread this is my absolute favorite) if you cant find it local you can order it from netrition.com here
  • 2 eggs
  • Spray Butter
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Cooking spray

How To Make It

This recipe truly could not be easier to make. It comes together in under 5 minutes. First I start by putting the 2 slices of bread and top of each other and cutting out the center. Some use a shot glass or other tricks to make a perfect hole which works, but I just cut or rip it out since when the egg is cooked in there you can’t tell its not perfect. I save the 2 cut out pieces and cook those in the pan also. I spray both sides and the 2 little extra pieces with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter spray and add some salt and pepper.

Spray a heated pan with cooking spray and add the toast. Crack an egg right into the middle of each hole. I cook it for about 2 minutes then flip it along with the 2 little pieces. Cook for another 2-3 minutes depending on how you enjoy your egg! I like my eggs slightly runny. That’s it! So easy. I love to use the 2 extra pieces of bread to dip into my runny egg!
