Ingredients

  • 4 slices of bread (your choice: white, whole wheat, sourdough, etc.)
  • 4 large eggs
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (optional, for spreading on bread)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for added flavor)
  • Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish, such as parsley or chives)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Bread

  1. Preheat the air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for about 5 minutes.
  2. Prep the bread: If desired, spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice of bread. This will add flavor and help achieve a golden-brown finish. You can also sprinkle a little garlic powder on the buttered side for extra flavor.

Step 2: Make the Egg Wells

  1. Cut out the centers: Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut a hole in the center of each slice of bread, creating a well for the egg. Save the cut-out pieces for later use, such as making croutons or toast bites.

Step 3: Air Fry the Toast

  1. Place in air fryer: Arrange the bread slices in the air fryer basket, buttered side up. If your air fryer is small, you may need to do this in batches.
  2. Air fry for 3-4 minutes: Air fry the bread for 3-4 minutes, or until it starts to turn golden brown.

Step 4: Add the Eggs

  1. Crack the eggs: Carefully crack an egg into the center of each bread slice.
  2. Season: Sprinkle salt and pepper over the eggs for seasoning.
  3. Air fry again: Return the bread with eggs to the air fryer and cook for an additional 5-6 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking.

Step 5: Serve

  1. Garnish: Once done, carefully remove the egg toast from the air fryer. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
  2. Enjoy: Serve immediately, and enjoy your delicious Air Fryer Egg Toast!

Tips for Success

  • Egg Consistency: If you prefer runny yolks, keep an eye on the cooking time. Start checking at the 5-minute mark.
  • Additions: Feel free to customize your egg toast by adding toppings such as cheese, avocado slices, or cooked bacon before air frying.
  • Different Breads: Experiment with different types of bread for unique flavors and textures. Bagels, English muffins, or gluten-free bread also work well.
