Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Bread

  1. Begin by selecting a thick slice of bread. Using a thicker slice prevents the egg from soaking through, keeping the toast crisp while the egg cooks.
  2. Using a spoon, press down the center of the bread to create a shallow indent. This will help the egg stay in place during cooking.
  3. Spread butter over the edges of the bread slice to enhance its flavor and help it crisp up in the air fryer.

Step 2: Add the Egg

  1. Carefully crack the egg into the indented area of the bread. Be sure to crack the egg gently to prevent it from spilling over the sides.
  2. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to bring out the egg’s natural flavor. If desired, you can sprinkle shredded cheese over the top for a rich, cheesy addition.

Step 3: Preheat the Air Fryer

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 2-3 minutes. Preheating ensures even cooking and a nicely browned, crispy toast.
  2. Spray or brush the air fryer basket lightly with oil to prevent sticking.

Step 4: Air Fry the Egg Toast

  1. Carefully place the prepared egg toast in the air fryer basket. Avoid overloading the basket, as the egg toast needs space for hot air to circulate.
  2. Cook at 350°F for 6-8 minutes, depending on how runny or firm you want the egg yolk to be. For a runny yolk, check after 6 minutes; for a firmer yolk, cook for up to 8 minutes.
  3. When the egg white is fully set and the toast is golden brown, remove the toast from the air fryer.
