Actually, there was no toad in this recipe, lol! They named it toad in a hole since the egg in the center of the bread evoke and image of a toad sitting in a hole. The same idea with the Ants Climbing a Tree. I got this recipe from Kraft website but the original recipe used bacon instead of chicken franks. It was really good.
Ingredients:
4 slices bread
2 eggs
4 tbsp. shredded cheddar cheese
1 chicken frank, finely chopped
4 tbsp. melted butter
Directions:
1. Cut a hole in the center of 2 of the bread slices using 1-1/2-inch cookie cutter or rim of a glass.
2. Spread 2 tbsp. of butter over one side of each of the remaining bread slices. Place butter side down in a baking dish.
3. Top each with 1 tbsp. of the cheese, then bread slices with holes in the center. Break 1 egg into each hole.
4. Bake in a preheated 250 degrees C oven for 8 minutes or until the eggs are set.
5. When the eggs are set, take out from oven and sprinkle with the remaining cheese and chopped chicken franks, return to the oven and bake for 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Serve.
Tips:You can also remove the sliced bread crust before baking if you don't eat it.
