Surprise Croque-madame Recipe

Yields4 ServingsPrep Time15 minsCook Time4 minsTotal Time19 mins

Do you want to entertain both kids and adults with innovative sandwiches? Using a cookie cutter, make a hole in the center of the sandwich and crack an egg inside. It's simple, fun, and delicious.

Ingredients
 8 large sliced bread
 2 large slices of ham
 4 eggs
 40 butter
Directions
1

Butter one side of the slices of bread. Place the ham halves on every other slice.

2

Sprinkle with grated cheese and close the 4 sandwiches by pressing firmly. Butter the outside of each one.

3

Place the sandwiches, along with the cut-out centers, in one or two large pans. Grill one side for two or three minutes.

4

To finish, flip the sandwiches (and the cut-out centers) and crack an egg into the center of each. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Let cook for two minutes and cover the pan for about a minute so the egg white sets without cooking the yolk further. Serve immediately with a green salad.
