Scale
Ingredients
- 2 slices bread
- 2 large eggs
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Create Bread Indent: Using a glass or Mason jar, press down firmly on each slice of bread to create a well-defined indent in the center without breaking the bread. This creates a space to hold the egg.
- Prepare Air Fryer: Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Place the indented bread slices flat in the basket, ensuring they are spaced apart for even cooking.
- Add Eggs: Carefully crack one egg into each indent in the bread, making sure the yolk stays intact and sits centered within the depression.
- Season: Sprinkle salt and pepper over the eggs to taste, adding flavor to the dish.
- Cook: Set the air fryer to 340ºF (171ºC) and cook the egg toast for 8 to 10 minutes. Adjust cooking time depending on how runny or firm you prefer the yolk. Once cooked, remove carefully and serve immediately for a warm, satisfying breakfast.
Notes
- Use slightly thicker bread slices for better stability and easy handling.
- For runnier yolks, reduce cook time to 8 minutes; for firmer yolks, cook up to 10 minutes.
- You can add herbs like chives or parsley for extra flavor before cooking.
- Cooking times may vary slightly depending on your air fryer model.
- For a crispier toast, lightly butter the bread before pressing the indent.
