The trend "with an egg on top" has been around for a couple of years now. I've seen a creamy sunny side up egg cracked on top of pizzas, hamburgers, rice and even in soups and stews! I decided to make a variation of a BLT sandwich with an egg not exactly cracked on top but rather nestled into the bread "in a hole" style. The flavor combination is outstanding and a perfect meal for brunch or lunch. MORE + LESS -

1

Cut out a hole from the center of one of the bread slices with a large 3-inch cookie cutter or the mouth of a glass.
2

In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat and place breads over melted butter. Carefully crack 1 egg over the bread hole and cover the skillet with the lid. Cook for 4 minutes or until you reach your desired consistency.
3

Remove bread slices from pan and place on a serving plate. Spread mayonnaise on the bread slice without the cut out hole, layer with Romaine lettuce, tomato slices and bacon strips.
4

Place second bread slice with egg on top of sandwich. Serve and enjoy!

Expert Tips
