"ATW80DS": Toad-in-the-Hole

We have made it to England in our goal of 80 Days. It is really hard to combine Couch to 5K recipes and cook your way around the world, but this recipe can be found on both lists. :)

TOAD - IN - THE - HOLE

What You Need:

12 slices of bread (recipe calls for 2 slices per person, but we only used 1)
1 Tbsp. butter or margarine , softened
1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese, divided
6 eggs
6 slices Bacon, cooked, crumbled


What You Need to do:
PREHEAT oven to 400°F. Cut hole in center of each of 6 of the bread slices, using 1-1/2-inch cookie cutter or rim of drinking glass. Discard removed bread circles or reserve for another use.
SPREAD remaining bread slices with margarine. Place, margarine-sides down, in 13x9-inch baking dish; sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese. Top with cut-out bread slices to make four sandwiches. Break 1 egg into each hole. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese and the bacon.
BAKE 15 to 20 min. or until cheese is melted and eggs are set.
