Egg In A Bagel

1. 1

   Start by cutting out the center of your bagel. I use my handy dandy ring cutter, about 2 inches in diameter, something wide enough to house the egg and evenly cook it.

2. 2

   Do the same with the American cheese and ham.

3. 3

   Heat skillet on medium heat, and add butter. Lay the bottom half of the bagel down onto the melted butter, crack the egg into the hole, then top with the cheese, and ham. Top with the top side of the bagel.

4. 4

   Season the top of the egg with a pinch of salt and cracked pepper, then top with the lid, steaming the egg a bit so that it cooks through to your desired doneness. Once egg is cooked through, plate and serve.

5. 5

   Not only is this thing a joy to look at, it's a thing of beauty to eat. That American cheese is crispy on the edges, along with the ham, creamy on the inside, the bagel lightly toasted from the butter, and the egg is perfectly cooked and creamy.
