Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 slices bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup shredded cheese (optional)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bread: Use the bottom of a glass to carefully press an indention into each slice of bread, creating a small well to hold the egg.
  2. Place Bread in Air Fryer: Put the slices of bread into the basket of your air fryer, making sure they lay flat without overlapping.
  3. Add Eggs: Crack one egg into each indention in the bread slices, trying to keep the yolks whole. Season with salt and pepper to your liking.
  4. Initial Air Frying: Cook the bread and eggs in the air fryer at 330°F (165°C) for 5 minutes to allow the eggs to start setting and the toast to crisp up.
  5. Add Cheese (Optional): Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the eggs and toast after the initial cooking time.
  6. Finish Cooking: Continue to air fry for an additional 3 minutes or until the eggs reach your desired level of doneness and the cheese melts perfectly.

Notes

  • Cooking times may vary depending on the air fryer model and egg size; adjust accordingly if you prefer runnier or firmer yolks.
  • You can substitute regular bread with gluten-free or whole grain bread based on your dietary preference.
  • Adding herbs like chives or parsley on top can enhance flavor.
  • If you don’t have an air fryer, this recipe can also be made in an oven at 350°F for about 8-10 minutes.
