Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • 2 slices of bread
  • olive oil
  • milk/soy milk
  • vanilla extract
  • black pepper
  • your choice of spices

Directions

1

Crack egg into a bowl or glass

2

Tear holes into the two slices of bread, tear and crumple the bread your tear out and place it into the egg in the glass

3

Add 4 tablespoons of milk to the egg and bread

4

Add a dash of vanilla extract to the egg and bread

5

Beat the egg, bread, milk and vanilla until it is worked together well.

6

Place olive oil in the skillet and place one or both slices of bread in the heated oil and pour half of the egg/bread mix into the hole of each bread slice.

7

sprinkle/grind black pepper onto the tops.

8

The trick here is to cook them on medium heat over a span of 20 or so minutes (usually 10 minutes per side) to crisp the bread and cook the egg thoroughly. Of course, you can cook it to your own preference.

9

Flip once the egg in the middle has attained a stiffness allowing you to flip it.

10

Once finished: eat it. Enjoy it. And I suggest a bit of ketchup with it.
