Description
Learn how to make a delicious Air Fryer Egg Ham and Cheese Toast with this easy recipe. Perfect for a quick and satisfying meal!
Ingredients
- 1 slice white bread
- 1 egg
- 3 tbsp (45 ml) shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
- Sesame seeds for topping
- Syrup for serving
Instructions
- Place a piece of white bread directly into the air fryer basket without toasting it beforehand.
- Using the back of a spoon, gently press down the middle of the bread to form a small dip to hold the egg.
- Lightly coat the bread, focusing on the edges, with olive oil to enhance crispiness.
- Slowly break an egg into the depression you created—handle with care as it requires a gentle touch.
- Scatter a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese over the top, allowing some to fall on the edges for added flavor.
- Cook in the air fryer at 175°C (or 350°F) for approximately 7 minutes, checking after 5 minutes. If you desire a soft yolk, remove it at 7 minutes; for a firmer yolk, cook for up to 10 minutes.
- Once finished, sprinkle some sesame seeds and a dash of salt for added texture and taste.
- Serve warm and feel free to accompany with a drizzle of syrup for a delightful sweet and savory combination.
Notes
- Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese over the entire slice of bread for consistent cooking.
- Opt for whole wheat bread for a healthier alternative that doesn’t compromise on taste.
- Customize the flavor of your air fryer egg-in-a-hole by trying different cheeses like cheddar or pepper jack.
