How to Make Easy Egg Toast
1️⃣ Warm the Pan
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add butter until melted and bubbly.
2️⃣ Prep the Bread
Press the bread into the melted butter so it absorbs flavor.

4️⃣ Season
Sprinkle salt, pepper, and optional chili flakes while cooking.
5️⃣ Serve Hot
Use a spatula to carefully transfer your egg toast to a plate. Top with avocado, herbs, or cheese if you like.
6️⃣ Enjoy!

Pro Tips for the Best Egg Toast
✅ Use fresh eggs for the best flavor and texture.
✅ For a runny yolk, cook on medium heat and keep an eye on it.
✅ Don’t skip seasoning; a pinch of salt brings out the flavors.
✅ Add toppings like sliced tomatoes, pesto, or spinach for variety.
✅ If serving multiple people, keep cooked toasts warm in the oven at 200°F (90°C).
Mistakes to Avoid
🚫 Using stale bread: It can become chewy. Use fresh, thick slices for best results.
🚫 Overcooking the egg: Watch the yolk closely for the perfect run.
🚫 Skipping toppings: Toppings add nutrition and excitement to your toast.
🚫 Cooking on high heat: This can burn the bread before the egg is cooked.
