Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Grease a 6 hole muffin tin generously with the butter.

  2. 2

    Whisk the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a bowl.

  3. 3

    Beat the batter egg with the milk and melted butter. Pour into the flour and stir until just smooth. Do not overmix.

  4. 4

    Spoon the batter into the muffin holes, filling each a little over half full. Gently crack one whole egg onto each, so the yolk sits in the middle.

  5. 5

    Bake for 22 to 25 minutes, until the bread is golden and the egg white is set. Bake a couple of minutes more if you like a firmer yolk.

  6. 6

    Cool in the tin for 3 minutes, then run a knife round and lift out. Sprinkle with parsley and a little salt and pepper, and eat warm.
