๐ณ Air Fryer Egg and Toast
Crispy toast with a perfectly cooked egg nestled in the center โ all made effortlessly in the air fryer!
๐งพ Ingredients (Serves 1):
-
1 slice of bread (any kind: white, whole wheat, sourdough)

๐ฉโ๐ณ Instructions:
โ Step 1: Prep the Toast
-
Cut a circle or square hole in the center of the bread slice using a glass or knife (save the cutout piece if you like it toasted too).
-
Optional: Lightly brush the bread with butter or olive oil for extra crispiness.
โ Step 2: Add the Egg
-
Place the bread slice in the air fryer basket.
-
Crack an egg directly into the hole. Hold the yolk centered for a few seconds so it settles in place.

Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Air fry at 330ยฐF (165ยฐC) for 6โ8 minutes for a soft yolk, or 9โ10 minutes for a fully set yolk.

โ Step 4: Serve
-
Carefully remove the toast with a spatula.
-
Top with your favorite extras like cheese, parsley, chili flakes, or avocado.

Serve immediately!
