Crouton Eggs (4 servings) 4 slices enriched white bread 1/2 cup butter 8 eggs salt and pepper - to taste At first look, this recipe might seem odd and quirky, but - trust me - it's delicious. The buttery, homemade croutons are the focal point of this dish. The eggs just hold it together and make it feel like breakfast. I used about 1/2 the butter listed in the ingredients and found that to be just right. Bottom line: This is a unique breakfast that would make again. (This recipe was tested and photographed in August 2014.) How To Make Crouton Eggs Dice the slices of bread into 1/2-inch squares. Melt the butter in a large skillet and place the bread cubes in the melted butter. Saute, turning frequently, until they are crisp and a rich golden brown on all sides. Place the toasted bread cubes in equal portions in 4 shallow, oven-proof dishes. Break each egg in a saucer and carefully slip two eggs into the dishes containing the toasted bread cubes. Season to taste with a little salt and pepper. Bake in a 325 degree oven for 15 minutes or until the eggs are set and done to the desired firmness. Serve at once. Serves, 4, allowing 2 eggs per serving. Croutons aren't just for salads. This recipe is from the chapter "Eggs For Breakfast" in The Fabulous Egg Cookbook.
