Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the bread to the pan and crack the egg right into the hole. Add the hole that you cut out to the skillet. Cook the slice with egg in it just until it's set enough to flip. Carefully flip and cook the egg until your desired doneness. Flip the bread circle and cook until golden brown.
