Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 2 slices bread (Choose your favorite type, like sourdough or whole grain)
- 1 teaspoon softened butter (For a rich, golden finish)
- 2 large eggs (Fresh eggs are key)
- Salt (to taste)
- Black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F to ensure it’s at the perfect temperature for cooking the egg toast evenly.
- Create Bread Wells: Press the bottom of a glass into the center of each slice of bread to create a well where the egg will sit, ensuring it doesn’t spill over during cooking.
- Butter Bread: Spread ½ teaspoon of softened butter on the top side of each slice of bread to add richness and help achieve a golden, crispy finish.
- Assemble and Season: Place the buttered bread into the preheated air fryer basket, buttered side up. Crack one egg into each bread well, then season each egg with salt and black pepper according to your taste.
- Cook: Air fry for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the bread turns golden brown and the egg whites are fully set but yolks remain to your preferred doneness.
- Serve: Remove from the air fryer and serve the savory egg toast immediately for a warm and satisfying meal.
Notes
- You can use any type of bread, but sturdier bread like sourdough or whole grain works best to hold the egg.
- If you prefer your egg yolks more cooked, extend the cooking time by a minute or two.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle some cheese or herbs like chives or parsley before cooking.
- This recipe is great for busy mornings as it requires minimal prep and cooking time.
