Recipe for eggy bread wanted

[muffin]

Please can anyone tell me how to make eggy bread, we've just got 5 chickens and are eating scrambled egg, omelettes or fried eggs every morning and need some new recipes for breakfast as it is getting a bit boring

[alanatkie]

I just whisk up the eggs with a fork same as if you were making an omelette & put it on a dinner plate. put slice of bread on plate so it soakes up some of the egg & then turn over to do other side. Then pop in frying pan. There is a recipe below- it uses more ingredience.

You could also whisk in some grated cheese, fry in a hot pan with a little butter or olive oil, add seasoning before cooking.

this is how i do it. break eggs into bowl,add a little milk, salt and pepper, whisk it all up, dip bread into the mixture making sure it is totaly covered on both sides, then put it in to a frying pan. job done.

How about a Frittata seeing as you have all them eggs.... you can bung just about anything in them

Use fresh cream instead of milk and add grated apple, brown sugarand cinnamon to eggs and make as per normal eggy bread for a sweet variation.

Many thanks for your replies, we now have another recipe for breakfast, I haven't tried adding the cream yet but the eggy bread I made went down very well with him indoors.

try it with crumpets, whisk egg as usual dip crumpets in the eggs, turning once or twice. I add a little chopped chilli to eggs before whisking.

serve with crispy bacon and some maple syrup.

If you like a bitty "Tang" to your eggy bread, thinly spread mustard on the bread before dipping into the seasoned egg and milk mix.

I always use butter,not oil in pan, much better flavour. For a quick lunch, make eggy bread put 2 slices in frying pan for a minute. turn one over, put a cheese slice on it and then put the other slice on top with non cooked side facing up for a minute, then turn. delicious.

Eggy bread is not eggy bread unless you smother it in Robisons shreddless wonder marmalade..The orange realy brings out the flavour of the eggy bread.
