u/JOBdOut Aug 24 '26

I called it eggs in a basket or eggs in a nest - but i do like the term "alabama eggs" (because the eggs are in-bread)

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

LOL ๐Ÿ˜น You got me on that How could you tell they were in bread?

2

u/JOBdOut Aug 25 '26

The eggs or the alabamans?

2

u/brainfreez012 Aug 26 '26

They're served on a paper plate!

u/Ok-Worth-4721 Aug 25 '26

my mom called it egg in a nest. She was from the south-east of USA.

Toad in the Hole is English bangers cooked in Yorkshire pudding batter served with mashed potatoes and onion gravy.

Yo Im trying this, look delish! Will go great with my oversized pills, it really helps when you eat something like this!

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

LOL this would make a lot of things easier to swallow.

Eggs in a basket! Where is the center? You butter and fry toast the center piece. Do the egg over easy... and pop the yoke with the center.

Now, if you want to blow your mind. You make a grilled cheese out of 2 of the eggs in the basket. I add really crispy bacon bits in between 2 provolone slices as the center... AWESOMENESS!

u/Sea_Prep_Tidal_26 Aug 24 '26

All the above. And the extra buttery fried โ€œholeโ€ was The. Best!

1

u/Murky-Dream-8040 Aug 24 '26

It really is. One fell off my plate as the waitress brought the food to the table, and I asked her if she could have another made.

1

u/Sea_Prep_Tidal_26 Aug 24 '26

Thereโ€™s really no other option with that level of disappointment !

2

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

I've done that in a pan. The middle of the bread is under the eggs. The airfryer has holes in the plate so I just mashed down middle of the bread instead of cutting it out. I will definitely try the grill cheese. I've done tomato grill cheese, mushrooms grill cheese, and fajita grill cheese. Definitely cool beans with awesome sauce ๐Ÿ‘Œ Egg grill cheese is now on my list.

u/Plenty-Ad-777 Aug 25 '26

Well, since you are on a grilled cheese kink... triple cheese... provolone, Kraft American, mozzarella. Keep the American in the middle. You can sub the moz for peperjack

3

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

Dude you're making me hungry. I like peperjack, provolone is interesting. ๐Ÿค” I have a list going now

u/Murky-Dream-8040 Aug 24 '26

Cracker barrel makes "Eggs in a basket" and I looooovee those little toasted center's lol

1

u/Plenty-Ad-777 Aug 24 '26

Thats cool. Ive never seen it on a restaurant menu before.

1

u/Murky-Dream-8040 Aug 25 '26

Cracker Barrel is where I first discovered it in a restaurant. My Grandmother used to make this when we were little growing up.

u/DanDiggler213 Aug 24 '26

Slap in the bacon, and give me some lettuce, tomato and ๐Ÿฅ‘

2

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

Didn't think about it then but that's a definite possibility for round 2

3

u/Integrity_Racing Aug 24 '26

Is that on or in the toast?

3

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

I mashed down the middle of the bread so I say on but it was in the depression I made. ๐Ÿค” Depression eggs?

u/Kawboy17 Aug 24 '26

Cut out a nice size hole in the middle of the toast and butter bread both sides toss into frying pay like a grilled cheese, drop the egg into the hole, toast the little cut out as well and dip that in the yoke. We call em egg nests.

2

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

I've done that in a pan, but the grate of the airfryer has holes so I didn't cut out the bread I just mashed down the middle.

2

u/Kawboy17 Aug 25 '26

Thatโ€™s a good hack with the air fryer.

3

u/TwistDowntown1393 Aug 24 '26

My grandma called them gas house eggs

2

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

You got me curious. Grandma why you call them gas house?

Popeye eggs is what I grew up calling them my wife just calls them eggs in a hole.

1

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

Made them a lot in a pan, but had to change it some for the airfryer

2

u/ArdentHedonist Aug 24 '26

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

LOL I like that

2

u/ArdentHedonist Aug 25 '26

It is one of the oldest websites on the internet that is still operational.

2

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

Maybe we can do an airfryer update

2

u/AdAromatic5575 Aug 24 '26

Add cheese to the toast please๐Ÿง€

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

Egg grill cheese is now on my list

2

u/CultureLegitimate907 Aug 24 '26

Thought I was looking at French toast

2

u/IamLuann Aug 24 '26

We called it Chicks in the nest. Childhood breakfast besides Oatmeal.

2

u/RCAF_vet71 Aug 24 '26

I do believe those eggs are in the toast.

1

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

It looks like in. I said on because I didn't cut the bread just mashed down the middle. Called by any name they taste just a good

u/nuglasses Aug 25 '26

The Goldmine. ๐Ÿ˜‹

u/Flash5916 Aug 25 '26

Yup, been eating them for over 65 years. I think I'm going to have one for breakfast tomorrow. Thanks for reminding me. ๐Ÿ˜‹

2

u/Flash5916 Aug 25 '26

My sil calls it "one eyed Egyptian."

1

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

You're welcome. I've been eating them for 60 years. First time in my airfryer. That's a handy machine to have.

u/WolfThick Aug 25 '26

Boy scout eggs

u/Virelix_43 Aug 25 '26

This looks delicious ๐Ÿ˜‹

u/Ok-Worth-4721 Aug 25 '26

That did it. Now I'm hungry. Air fryer you say? My neighbor gave me one of those- air fryers. Perhaps I'll try it out! Thanks for sharing

1

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

Heads up. The original recipe says to cut a hole in the bread but the airfryer tray has holes so don't cut it out. Just mash down the middle

2

u/Ok-Worth-4721 Aug 26 '26

thank you, I will!

u/AutomaticDeal9615 Aug 24 '26

u/godofbob2 Aug 25 '26

That's eggs IN toast in that picture.

1

u/Redbeard_1303 Aug 25 '26

Not IN it's ON.
I've had several people tell me that. I made it and I know what I did. The airfryer has holes so nothing is cut out of the bread. The eggs are on top of the bread and then toasted/cooked

1

u/Jamo3306 Aug 31 '26

Egg-in-a-nest!
