Place the bread in a single layer on the pan. Place a small piece of butter in the circle in each slice of bread. Bake for 5 minutes and then flip the bread slices.Crack eggs into the circles.Return to oven and bake until egg whites have set but the yolks are still soft, 10 to 12 minutes.Top eggs with crumbled bacon and chives. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
