Ingredients

Scale

Egg Mixture

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch pepper
  • 1 tsp natural vegetarian Worcestershire sauce

Toppings and Bread

  • 2 slices sturdy bread (gluten-free if desired)
  • 1/4 cup shredded plant-based cheese (cheddar or mozzarella style)
  • 3 slices smoked poultry bacon (e.g., smoked turkey bacon)
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh herbs (optional, e.g., parsley or chives)

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Cook the smoked poultry bacon in the air fryer or on the stovetop until crispy. In a bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a splash of natural vegetarian Worcestershire sauce to add a gentle umami flavor.
  2. Assemble the Toast: Lay the bread slices flat and carefully pour some of the beaten egg onto each slice, allowing it to soak in slightly. Generously top with shredded plant-based cheese, then add the crispy smoked poultry bacon. Sprinkle fresh herbs or veggies if using.
  3. Air Fry for the Perfect Finish: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Place the assembled toasts inside and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until the egg sets and the cheese melts smoothly.
  4. Serve Warm and Enjoy: Carefully remove the cheesy egg toast from the basket and serve immediately. Optionally drizzle with grape juice or serve alongside fresh fruit for a bright finish.

Notes

  • Choose thick or sourdough-style bread to prevent sogginess and hold toppings well.
  • Pre-cooking the bacon ensures crispiness and prevents greasy bread.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer; leave space for even cooking.
  • Check the toast a minute or two before the timer ends to avoid burning, as air fryer models vary.
  • For best flavor, add fresh herbs after cooking rather than before.
