A quick and delicious Air Fryer Egg and Cheese Toast recipe that combines toasted bread with perfectly cooked eggs and melted cheese. Ideal for a nutritious breakfast or snack, this recipe is easy to prepare and customizable with your favorite cheese and herbs.

Ingredients

Scale

Bread and Eggs

  • 2 slices of thick bread (sourdough or sandwich bread)
  • 2 eggs

Cheese and Butter

  • ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (optional)

Seasonings and Garnish

  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • Optional: fresh parsley or chives, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F to ensure a hot cooking environment for crisp toast and evenly cooked eggs.
  2. Prepare Bread: Lightly butter one side of each bread slice. Then, gently press a well into the center of the buttered side of the bread to hold the egg in place.
  3. Add Eggs: Crack one egg carefully into each bread well, ensuring the yolk stays intact and the egg whites do not overflow.
  4. Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheese around the edges of the eggs or evenly over the egg whites for delicious melted coverage.
  5. Cook: Place the prepared bread slices in the air fryer basket and air fry for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the egg whites are fully set and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Season and Serve: Remove from the air fryer, season with salt, pepper, and sprinkle with fresh herbs like parsley or chives if desired. Serve the toast hot for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use thick bread like sourdough for best structure and to prevent sogginess.
  • Adjust cooking time depending on your preferred egg yolk consistency.
  • Butter is optional but adds flavor and helps crisp the bread.
  • Feel free to experiment with different cheeses or add spices like paprika or garlic powder for variation.
  • Ensure eggs are fresh for the best taste and appearance.
