Instructions

Create Bread Indent: Using a glass or Mason jar, press down firmly on each slice of bread to create a well-defined indent or depression in the center, which will hold the egg.
Prepare Air Fryer: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Place the indented bread slices carefully inside the basket.
Add Eggs: Crack one large egg into each bread indent, being cautious to keep the egg yolk intact and centered within the indent.
Season: Sprinkle salt and pepper evenly over the eggs on each bread slice to add flavor.
Cook: Set the air fryer temperature to 340ºF (approximately 171ºC) and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, adjusting the time based on your preferred yolk consistency—from slightly runny to fully set.

Notes

Adjust the cooking time to achieve your desired egg yolk doneness.
Use thick slices of bread to hold the egg better and prevent sogginess.
Spraying the air fryer basket prevents sticking and allows for easy cleanup.
For added flavor, garnish with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of cheese after cooking.
