Egg and prosciutto in a bagel hole

Egg in a bagel hole is one of my favourite breakfast meals. It’s so easy to make – can be cooked ion a pan or in the oven. This Egg and prosciutto in a bagel hole is taking the dish to a higher level - it’s filling, yummy yet still easy to make. Ideal for a special breakfast or brunch. I made it using gluten-free bagel, but you can make it with normal bagels or special flavoured ones, such as cinnamon or caramelised onion bagels.

Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bagel
  • 2 slices of prosciutto
  • 2 sundried tomatoes or grilled pepper slices in oil from a jar, flattened
  • 1 tsp pesto optional
  • 2 eggs

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  2. Cut the bagel in half. Using a knife or cookie cutter make the hole a bit bigger so that cracked egg can easily fit in there.
  3. Lightly grease the cut side of the bagels with pesto or dairy-free spread, then lay the prosciutto on top, covering the hole. Push the prosciutto using the sundried tomatoes, creating a little nest for the egg.
  4. Move the bagel nests onto a greased or lined baking tray, then crack the eggs into the holes. Season with pepper, then bake for 10-15 minutes depending on how well-done you like your fried egg.
  5. Serve warm with a crunchy salad.
