Start your morning healthy breakfast off with this delicious Air Fryer Egg Toast, also called Eggs in a Basket or Eggs in a Hole or even Toad in the hole! No matter what you call it, this is an easy breakfast of cooked eggs and toast that is delicious and the whole family will love!
What Type of Bread to Use for the Egg Toast?
We typically use white bread that is a little softer for this Air Fryer Egg Toast. You could also use a sour dough bread, just be careful it’s not sliced too thick.
What are The Best Eggs to Buy?
We wrote an article on the best eggs to buy and you can read that to find out more about eggs. If possible, always choose organic eggs for breakfast if you are not cooking the egg yolks hard. We love our eggs a little runny and find that a quality organic egg is the safest choice.
Pull out your Air Fryer and make this delicious breakfast of eggs on toast. When the eggs have finished cooking you can drizzle a little melted butter over the cooked eggs and toasty bread.
