Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 8 thick slices white sandwich bread
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 6 oz bulk breakfast sausage
- 2, sliced thick firm apples
- 1 1/4 tbsp light brown sugar
- 2 tsp total salt, black pepper and cinnamon
Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)
- Form the sausage into eight thin patties and fry over medium heat for 3 minutes per side until browned with a crisp edge and no pink at the center.
- Pour off most of the fat, add the apples, brown sugar and cinnamon, and cook 6 minutes until the slices are glazed and tender at the edge but still hold their shape.
- Cut a 2-inch hole out of the middle of each slice of bread with a glass, saving the rounds.
- Melt butter in a skillet, lay in the bread, and crack an egg into each hole.
- Cook 3 minutes until the underside of the bread is golden and the white has just set, then flip carefully and give it 1 minute more for a soft yolk.
- Toast the cut-out rounds in the same butter and serve everything together, seasoned with salt and pepper.
