Hollowed toast bread is a slice of toast bread with some of its soft middle removed while the crust stays intact. The opening can hold an egg or another filling as the bread cooks.
To make hollowed toast bread, cut or press out the centre of a slice, leaving a sturdy border of crust. Use a small knife or a glass, and avoid cutting all the way through the crust.
Yes, hollowed toast bread works well for egg-in-a-hole. Set the slice in a lightly greased pan, crack an egg into the opening, and cook gently until the white is set, covering the pan if needed.
Egg, grated cheese, cooked vegetables, and thick spreads all work in hollowed toast bread. Choose fillings that are not too wet, since excess liquid can soak through the base before the bread browns.
Yes, you can cook hollowed toast bread in an air fryer. Keep the filling in place with a small piece of cheese or another topping, and check early because exposed bread edges can brown quickly.
The centre removed from hollowed toast bread can be turned into breadcrumbs, toasted croutons, or a topping for soup. Dry it first if you want fine crumbs that keep their texture in a recipe.
Leave a wide, unbroken rim when making hollowed toast bread, and avoid using a very thin or stale slice. Cook it gently and do not overfill the opening, especially with runny ingredients.
Store unfilled hollowed toast bread in an airtight container at room temperature and use it before it dries out. Refrigerate cooked slices with perishable fillings, then reheat them until hot before serving.
Yes, hollowed toast bread can be frozen. Freeze the plain slices in a sealed freezer bag with parchment between them, then thaw or toast them before adding a filling; cooked egg-filled slices may lose texture.
Removing the centre reduces the amount of bread you eat only if you leave that piece uneaten. If you eat the removed crumb too, hollowing the slice does not meaningfully change the total bread consumed.

Hollowed toast bread is a slice of sandwich bread with its soft centre removed, leaving a crust-like frame. It is a simple home-cooking trick rather than a distinct traditional dish, often used to hold a filling while the bread cooks in a pan or toaster.
The edges turn crisp while the remaining bread stays tender, and it is commonly served warm with an egg or cheese in the middle. It is primarily a source of carbohydrates, with 53.5 g per 100 g. For a more filling breakfast or snack, pair it with protein and some fresh vegetables; use a non-stick pan if you want to keep added fat modest.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
