Ingredients
- 2 pieces Thick slices of dairy-free bread
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Using a round cookie cutter or the top of a small glass, cut a hole in the center of each bread slice. Save the cut-out circles for toasting.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Once the oil is hot, place one slice of bread and its cut-out circle into the skillet.
Step 4
Crack one egg carefully into the hole in the bread.
Step 5
Season with a pinch of salt and a sprinkle of ground black pepper.
Step 6
Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the egg is just starting to set.
Step 7
Gently flip the bread and the cut-out circle with a spatula to cook the other side, about 2 minutes more, until the egg reaches your desired doneness.
Step 8
Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the second piece of bread and the remaining olive oil.
Step 9
Serve the Dairy-Free Egg in a Basket hot, garnished with chopped fresh chives.
