Place the bread in a lightly greased air fryer basket, crack the egg into the well, and season with salt and pepper. Cook at 350°F (175°C) for 6–9 minutes, adjusting for your perfect yolk.
This recipe is endlessly adaptable. Keep it classic or level it up with toppings like melted cheese, fresh herbs, avocado slices, or a drizzle of hot sauce. Thick bread works best, but most slices can handle it with a little care. The air fryer ensures even cooking—crispy edges, tender egg, and no burnt surprises.
Minimal ingredients, super fast prep, and almost no cleanup make this recipe a winner for beginners, teens, or anyone who loves a quick, homemade breakfast that never disappoints.
