    We always called it a Toad in a Hole. But we’d always stack ham and cheese over it with the bread piece on the very top. My father was always excited to make them for everyone on the weekends.

        One-eyed Jack was what my father called it.

      This is what my Dad called it and you are the first person I’ve ever heard besides him do it.

      I wonder if it’s regional, are you from NY/New England area?

      Sometimes he would also call it “Frog in a Log” but that could have just been him being goofy.

      The “official” name I’ve heard since then is Eggs in a Basket.

        Toad in a hole is sausage in a pie dough, but it seems that name was reused in a limited number of us regions. Egg+bread is egg in a nest in pretty much all other UK colonized regions and in the UK.

          In the UK toad in the hole is sausages in Yorkshire pudding.

            If you’re not familiar with yorkshire pudding, you might mistake it for pie crust.

        Yeah, Eastern Seaboard. Could be Regional.
