Ingredients
- you”ll need:
- 2 slices brioche loaf, each about ¾-inch thick
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- Chives for garnish
- ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Using a large (2.5- or 3-inch) heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out a heart from the center of each slice of brioche. Or, use a paring knife to cut the heart shapes. Reserve slices and hearts.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the slices and the heart cutouts to the pan and cook until slightly toasted. Turn slices and cutouts; carefully break an egg into the center of each slice. Cover the skillet and cook until the egg white is just set and the yolk is cooked to your liking, 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully transfer a slice and a cutout to each of 2 plates and snip some chives over the top. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Serve immediately and as always, enjoy!!!
