But one glance at the comments left at the end of this page shows that most people are personalising the recipe by adding one or two other ingredients. Ham or crispy bacon are very popular. Some more unusual ingredients are also suggested including jam or marmalade. So, do give this recipe a try and add one or two of your own favourite ingredients.

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1
First, put the frying pan on a medium heat, add the olive oil and butter. Leave that to heat up while preparing the eggy bread.
Break the eggs into a container, add milk then salt and pepper to taste. Lightly whisk the egg mixture with a fork to mix the egg whites and yolks.
STEP 2
Place the bread in a shallow container and evenly pour over the whisked eggs. Leave the egg mixture to soak into the bread for two minutes. Add the soaked bread to the pre-heated pan and oil, pour the remaining egg mixture over the bread. Turn the heat to medium low and fry for four minutes. Turn the eggy bread over and cook for a further three minutes.STEP 3
The eggy bread is cooked when it has a golden brown colour. Lots of things go well with eggy bred; bacon, ham, fried mushrooms and fried tomatoes are excellent partners.We can also recommend eggy bread served cold. Simply put a slice in the fridge and eat it the next day - delicious for breakfast!
ANSWER: Wholemeal bread will do just fine, it's just a matter of personal taste
