Sometimes you want a breakfast that’s not only tasty and easily prepared, you want one that looks pretty, too. This is that breakfast, Gluten Free Bell Pepper Egg In a Hole. It takes as long to cook it, as it does to fry up an egg.
I saw this idea on Pinterest and just had to try it. It’s the simplest recipe, you fry eggs, but you fry them inside bell peppers which makes for a pretty presentation and is also very tasty, as the bell peppers become soft and slightly caramelized.

Ingredients
- Pepper of your choice
- 2 eggs
- Salt and pepper
- Olive Oil for frying

- If you want your yolks to be hard, cook for another minute.
- Serve with gluten free bread or toast.
