There is something so fun about creative about this festive egg in a nest. It’s super cute, simple, and easy to make. Also, requires minimal clean up.

This recipe is a great way to get in protein (from the egg) and carbs (from the toast). Continue to make things fun and switch up the shapes for different occasions.

Tips and trick

Follow these few tips and tricks to make the best egg in a nest breakfast!

Firmly press the cookie cutter into the toast. This will ensure you get a smooth shape and finish.

Use large slices of toast. To ensure you get a nicely shaped bunny cut, use large slices of bread. A few favorites are sourdough, whole grain or white toast.

Carefully crack the egg. If you want a runny yolk, make sure to carefully crack the egg so you don’t break the yolk. Alternatively, if you want a cooked yolk simply break the yolk once you drop into the cut out area. Let it fully cook through.

Add butter. For extra crispy toast, add a little spread of butter on each piece of toast.

Additionally, add all the toppings. While this toast is delicious on its own with the egg, definitely get creative with the toppings! Add shredded cheese, bacon, hot sauce, or even add some sautéed veggies.

How to make

This easter breakfast toast could not be any easier. I have outlined the few simple steps below.

Firstly, shape the bread. Press the bunny cookie cutter into the piece of bread to make the bunny shape. Carefully remove the center piece of bread. Repeat 6 times.

Secondly, preheat skillet or pan over medium heat on the stove.

Thirdly, add the bread onto the pan and crack an egg into the cut out “nest” area. Spread a little bit of butter on the bread if you choose.

Cook for 4-5 minutes or until the egg is cooked to your liking.

Lastly, top the easter toast with salt, pepper and any toppings of your choice.
