Air Fryer Egg Toast

Air Fryer Egg Toast is a fantastic and easy breakfast option that’s quick, healthy, and customizable. It’s a great way to start your day with a nutritious and satisfying meal. Give it a try, and you’ll soon find yourself making this delicious breakfast again and again.

Why Choose Air Fryer Egg Toast?
Healthier Option: Traditional frying methods require oil, which can add unnecessary calories to your breakfast. With an air fryer, you can achieve that crispy texture without the extra oil.

Quick and Convenient: Air fryers are known for their speed. You can have your air fryer breakfast ready in just a few minutes, making it perfect for those busy mornings.

Customizable: One of the best things about this air fryer eggs breakfast recipe is that you can customize it any way you like it. You can add toppings like cheese, avocado, or even bacon to make it truly your own.

Gather all Ingredients

To get started, you’ll need the following ingredients: eggs, bread, salt and black pepper.

Air Fryer Egg Toast Ingredients

How to make this Recipe:

  1. Prepare toasts

    First, spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place bread in the air fryer basket. Using a drinking glass make an indent in the center of each bread piece. Use your fingers or a spoon to press down the center of the indent. Next, crack the egg into the center of the indent. It is ok if an egg white goes beyond the indent. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top.

  2. Air fry

    Finally, place basket into the air fryer and cook at 350°F for 8 minutes. Remove toasts with a spatula. The eggs should be perfectly cooked with a runny yolk, and the bread will be nice and crispy. Serve it hot.

Air Fryer Egg Toast: Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use whole wheat or gluten-free bread?

Yes! Air fryer egg toast works with any type of bread, including whole wheat, gluten-free, sourdough, or even brioche.

Can I add toppings to the egg toast?

Absolutely! Popular toppings include shredded cheese, diced vegetables (like tomatoes or spinach), cooked bacon bits, avocado slices, or hot sauce. Add cheese halfway through cooking for a perfectly melted result.

How do I prevent the egg from spilling off the bread?

Ensure the bread has a deep enough well to hold the egg. For extra security, use slightly thicker bread or cut out a square/oval in the center for the egg to sit in.

Can I use other cooking methods for egg toast?

If you don’t have an air fryer, you can prepare egg toast in an oven or on a stovetop, though the air fryer is faster and produces crispier results.
