Edit: (Slice of bread with a hole cut in the middle and an egg fried in it.) I have always called them daddy-o eggs but I have recently been informed that is incorrect.-

    “Toad-in-the-hole” sounds British to me.

    Edit: @fluke@lemmy.world said “toad-in-the-hole” refers to something else, some other breakfast food.

        Sausage in Yorkshire pudding! Unless that’s called bread in the US in which case we are several layers deep into this word inception.

            AFAIA, The pudding part is because pudding referred to meat dishes long before it was used for sweet dishes, and yorkshire pudding used to be exclusively served with meat - which is likely tightly linked to the original meaning of toad in the hole!
