Ingredients
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
12 cloves garlic, thickly sliced
2 cups cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp cider vinegar
¼ tsp each salt and crushed red pepper flakes
1 tbsp butter
4 eggs
4 thick slices bread, toasted
200 g brie cheese, sliced
1 pkg (175 g) sliced Schneiders Maple Smoked Ham
Directions
In saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and softened, about 1 minute. Add tomatoes, maple syrup, vinegar, salt and crushed red pepper flakes and 1 tbsp water. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring often, until tomatoes are bursting, liquid is reduced and garlic is very soft, 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
In large nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat; cook eggs, sunny-side up, until whites are set and yolks are cooked to desired doneness, 3 to 5 minutes.
Top each slice of toast with ¼ of the brie, ham, some of the tomato confit and an egg. Top with freshly cracked black pepper, if desired.
Tips: This will make more confit that you’ll need, but it makes an excellent condiment for any eggs, grilled meats, or as an addition to a charcuterie board.
Serve with a crisp green salad.
