🛒 Ingredients
-
2 slices of bread (any kind you like)
-
2 eggs
-
Butter or cooking spray
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
Optional toppings: cheese, ham, bacon, veggies — whatever you’re craving!
🔥 Instructions
1. Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and let it preheat for a few minutes while you prep.
2. Prep the Bread
Use a cookie cutter, small glass, or even a knife to cut a circle or square from the center of each bread slice — this creates a little nest for your egg. (Or keep the bread whole and crack the egg right in the middle if you’re in a hurry.)
3. Grease the Basket
Lightly butter the air fryer basket or spray it with cooking spray to keep everything from sticking.
4. Build Your Toast
Place your bread slices in the basket. Carefully crack one egg into each center well. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.
5. Add Toppings (Optional but Delicious!)
Now’s your chance to get creative — sprinkle on some shredded cheese, add a few bits of cooked bacon or ham, or toss on some chopped veggies for color and crunch.
6. Air Fry
Pop the basket into the air fryer and cook at 350°F (175°C) for 6–8 minutes, depending on how runny or set you like your eggs.
-
Softer yolks? Check closer to the 6-minute mark.
-
Firmer yolks? Let them go a little longer.
7. Serve & Enjoy
Use tongs or a spatula to carefully lift out the toast — it’ll be hot! Serve immediately, maybe with a side of fruit, avocado, or your favorite hot drink.
🥑 Bonus Tips:
-
Want crispy edges? Use slightly older bread or toast it lightly first.
-
Feeding more than one? You can easily double or triple the recipe — just cook in batches.
-
For a fancier twist, sprinkle with fresh herbs or a dash of hot sauce before serving.
