Ingredients

• 1 slice Sprouted grain bread
• 1 Egg
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Use a round cookie cutter (or the rim of a glass) to cut a hole about 2-3 inches in diameter in the center of the sprouted grain bread slice.

Step 2

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter, swirling it around to coat the bottom of the pan evenly.

Step 3

Place the bread slice into the skillet and toast it lightly for 1-2 minutes until golden brown on the bottom.

Step 4

Crack the egg carefully into the hole in the center of the bread. Sprinkle the egg with salt and black pepper.

Step 5

Cook the egg for 3-4 minutes, or until the egg white is mostly set but the yolk is still runny. For a firmer yolk, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Step 6

Carefully flip the bread and egg using a spatula. Cook for another 1 minute for a lightly runny yolk or 2 minutes for a firmer yolk.

Step 7

Remove the Egg in a Sprouted Nest from the skillet and transfer it to a plate.

Step 8

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, for a burst of color and flavor.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your nourishing breakfast!
