You gotta love these little slices of eggy goodness and it’s a great way to use up the last of the eggs whilst camping.
Use a cup or a mug to cut a circle out of the bread, or use a small, sharp knife and let your imagination run wild. If you are going to serve with bacon, cook that first and then fry the Holy Eggs in the bacon grease. Double Yum!

Love this idea – and my kids are going to have fun coming up with their own weird shapes for cooking their eggs in. Just brilliant. And a perfect entry for the Family Foodies challenge. Thanks so much for linking up!
