You will need a griddle and
2 eggs, separated into bowls or cups1/2 stick butter or margarine
1 bagel of choice
1/4 cup shred cheese of choice
- Heat griddle medium heat, about 3-5 minutes and open the bagel.
- Use 1 pat of butter or margarine to grease the griddle, turn heat down by one notch.
- Place bagels inside down on the griddle to get golden brown, remove them and set aside.
- Use 1 pat of butter or margarine if needed to grease the griddle, pour on egg whites, place the bagels in the egg whites insides down.
- Fill the bagel holes with the egg yolks, allow to cook for 2 minutes or until whites aren't runny. *If you want over hard pop the yolk or just slosh it around in its container before pouring.
- If needed use a pat of butter or margarine to grease the griddle then flip the bagels * if you want over hard lift the bagel up a bit for it to cover the outside of the bagel* and allow to cook for 1 minute for over easy, 2 minutes for over hard.
- Sprinkle egg white side while cooking yolk side with cheese and allow to melt.
This goes really well cut up over a bed of spinach. I ate nothing but eggs in basket for over a week trying to perfect this recipe. I hope you like it.
