Ingredients
4slicessandwich bread
3tablespoonsbuttermelted
4large eggs
1shallot
1plum or Roma tomatodiced
⅓cupmild cheddar cheeseshredded
pinchsalt
freshly ground black pepper
1jalapeñodiced
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Prepare 4 6oz. ramekins byspraying them with cooking spray. Brush one side of the slices of bread with the melted butter, making sure to spread it all the way to the edges of the bread.
Place bread slices into the ramekins, gently pushing down so that the bread is against the sides and there is a good size opening for the egg. The bread may tear, but that's ok--it will be in your belly in no time.
Crack the egg and place it into the center of the bread. Evenly divide the shallot, tomato, and jalapeño among the ramekins.
Sprinkle each with salt and freshly ground pepper. Divide the cheese evenly over the top of each.
Place ramekins on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and bake. Cooking time is about 15 minutes for a runny yolk, 20 minutes for medium, and 25 minutes for a hard egg yolk.
