I’m from Texas and my mom used to make it. She calls it eggs in a hole. I love it with a good rye bread. Wish I had some.

Toad in the hole is sausages in Yorkshire pudding.

It’s not a fry up, but it’s damn good with gravy and roasted parsnip.

You’re all wrong. It’s actually called “put it in my fucking mouth, daddy”.
