How do you make toad in a hole?!
100g/4oz plain flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
A pinch of white pepper
1 tablespoon of suet (optional - but adds texture to the bed variant)
2 eggs
200 ml of milk - topped up to 250ml with water (1/2 pint liquid)
Put flour, salt and eggs in a bowl and beat with a fork or hand mixer, gradually add the liquid until the batter is smooth and creamy. Leave the batter to stand for ten minutes, it improves the pudding.
Put some beef fat into either one large metal roasting tray, a muffin tray, or 12 individual metal small patty tins. Preferably the fat will be taken from the pan in which the beef or meat is roasting.
Put the tray or tin in the oven at a temperature of 225°C. Leave them there for five to ten minutes until the fat is smoking hot.
Pour in the batter. Put the pudding in the oven.
A bed of Yorkshire pudding in one large roasting tray will take 30 minutes to cook. Individual puddings in a muffin tray, patty tins will take 10 to 15 minutes.
The puddings are ready when they are well risen around the edges and golden brown.
Add sausages to the batter in the roasting tray and you have Toad in the Hole.

there are A LOT of variations to toads in a hole.....are you wanting the egg in a grilled piece of toast.....the batter poured over meat version?
Im guessing your talking about a piece of bread with egg fried in the middle? We call it an egg in a basket. LOL
Butter your bread, take a small cup and cut the center out. Put your bread in a hot pan sprayed with pam and crack the egg in the center. Cook for a min or two and flip to cook on the other side until the egg is done to your liking.
It's really easy. Here's a recipe for you to follow:
INGREDIENTS
6 slices bread
2 tablespoons butter, softened
6 eggs
6 slices Cheddar cheese
DIRECTIONS
Preheat a large skillet to a high heat.
With a small biscuit cutter remove centers from bread. Butter slices on one side only. Grill bread until lightly toasted. Crack an egg into each bread hole (be careful not to break the yolk). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Lay 1 slice of cheese on each egg and then the bread rounds. Cook until eggs are cooked to your desired consistency.
