Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 thick slices of sourdough or whole wheat bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup grated plant-based cheese
  • 2 slices smoked turkey bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon plant-based butter
  • Salt (natural) to taste
  • Black pepper (natural) to taste
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Eggs: Whisk the eggs thoroughly with salt, pepper, and the natural gelling agent until smooth and slightly frothy. This mixture should hold together firmly when cooked on the bread.
  2. Assemble the Toast: Spread plant-based butter evenly on both sides of the bread slices. Pour the egg mixture gently onto the bread, ensuring it stays within the toast borders. Sprinkle grated plant-based cheese evenly on top, followed by crispy smoked turkey bacon pieces.
  3. Air Fry to Perfection: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F. Place the assembled toasts in the basket without overlapping. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until the egg is set and the cheese is melted beautifully with a lightly golden crust forming around the edges.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: Remove carefully using a spatula and let cool for a minute before serving to enjoy the ideal mix of textures and flavors in your Air Fryer Cheesy Egg Toast.

Notes

  • Use thick bread to prevent sogginess and provide a sturdy base for the egg and cheese.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer; air needs to circulate freely for even cooking and crispiness.
  • Preheat the air fryer to ensure consistent temperature so eggs set perfectly.
  • Opt for smoked turkey bacon to add rich flavor without excess fat.
  • Experiment with different plant-based cheeses for unique melting and flavor profiles.
