Egg and Muffin Toaster cooks up a storm in the US

The must have kitchen gadget of course

Its early and all you want it a egg and ham muffin sandwich of course, but making it can sometimes be a pain, you've got to put the bread in the toaster, get out a frying pan, blah, blah blah.

But wait, is that an Egg and Muffin Toaster I see before me? Yes you guessed it. Just when you thought you had enough kitchen gadgets to see you through to Christmas along comes another.

Created by a company called Back to Basics in America, the Egg & Muffin Toaster delivers in about four minutes according to the blurb in the press release:

“A convenient and tasty morning meal that's both familiar and well liked.”

In addition to being a full-functioning toaster, the Egg & Muffin Toaster can simultaneously: 1) toast the bread, 2) cook an egg (poached or steam-scrambled), and 3) warm a pre-cooked slice of ham or sausage…or any combination of these three functions, in addition to boiling up to four eggs.

But wait that's not all: The Egg & Muffin Toaster also features wide toasting slots, an auto shut-off for individual toasting and poaching options, an easy-to-clean control touchpad, and light to dark toaster settings, a removable crumb tray for easy clean-up and cord storage.

Most importantly the toaster's “Egg/Toast” function directs cooking of both items to complete at the same time.

In an attempt at world domination, Back to Basics has managed to flog more than 350,000 Egg & Muffin Toaster units into shops across America. You will be able to get one for $49.99 (£30).
