Griddle Toast with a Soft Boiled Egg

People didn’t always have toasters, but toast has been around for awhile. It was even made on the trails over the fire! How did they do it? On a hot griddle over the fire. Texas claims to have invented it – hence the name Texas toast. Just to clarify, Texas toast is made with a thick piece of bread. This recipes is just regular ol’ griddle toast.

Here’s How to Do it:

The first thing you need to do is get the griddle (or heavy skillet) hot. Put butter on both sides of the toast.

Lay the toast on the griddle and cook for one to two minutes on each side.

While it’s cooking, place the egg(s) in a sauce pan with cold water. Bring it to a boil and cook for 1 minutes.

Remove from the heat and let it sit in the hot for three minutes. Run it under cold water.

Tap the top of the shell to knock it off.

Using a small spoon, scoop the egg from the shell and lay it on the toast.

And that’s all there is to it!! Add some fruit and you have breakfast!
