Pesto Egg in a Hole: a TIKTOK special

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil reduces saturated fat while still providing a non-stick surface.

cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and adds a cheesy flavor without dairy.

Slice the sourdough bread.

Butter both sides of the sourdough bread with pesto.

Cut a hole in the center of the bread slice and remove the cut-out piece.

Heat a non-stick pan on the induction hob and drizzle a little olive oil (optional).

Place the buttered bread in the pan and crack an egg into the hole.

Cover the pan with a lid to allow the egg to cook on the top half.

Adjust the heat to 100 degrees Celsius to cook the egg and bread.

After a few minutes, check the underside of the bread for browning.

Brush a little pesto on the sides of the bread while it cooks.

Once the underside is brown and the egg is cooked to your liking, serve it up.
