Eggs in a Bagel Basket

Eggs in a Bagel Basket






You will need a griddle and

2 eggs, separated into bowls or cups
1/2 stick butter or margarine
1 bagel of choice
1/4 cup shred cheese of choice



  1. Heat griddle medium heat, about 3-5 minutes and open the bagel.
  2. Use 1 pat of butter or margarine to grease the griddle, turn heat down by one notch.
  3. Place bagels inside down on the griddle to get golden brown, remove them and set aside.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
