Preparation time: 7 mins

Cook time: 10 mins

Serves 1

Ingredients

2 slices Hovis Tasty Wholemeal Thick bread
2 Happy Egg Co. Large Free Range eggs
Handful of cherry tomatoes, quartered
Handful of grated Cheddar cheese (or Mozzarella)
Small bunch of fresh chives, finely chopped
1–2 tsp Crispy chilli oil

Tip

If you prefer a firmer egg yolk, simply leave it in the air fryer for an extra 1 to 2 minutes.

Method

Place the two slices of bread onto a clean chopping board. Take a small glass and press the rim firmly into the centre of each slice to create a well/indentation. This will hold the egg in place.

Using a glass to press a circular indent into thick wholemeal bread slices on a wooden cutting board for an egg recipe.

Carefully crack one egg into the centre of each indentation.

Cracking a fresh egg into the centre indent of a wholemeal bread slice, with another egg already sitting in the adjacent slice.

Scatter the quartered cherry tomatoes around the egg yolk, then sprinkle a generous handful of grated cheese over the top of both slices, avoiding the very centre of the yolk.

Sprinkling shredded cheese and chopped cherry tomatoes over a raw egg sitting in a slice of wholemeal bread.

Carefully lift the loaded slices and place them side-by-side into your air fryer basket. Cook at 180°C for 7 minutes (or until the egg white is completely set, the cheese is golden and bubbling, and the yolk is cooked to your liking).

Placing the prepared wholemeal egg-in-a-hole bread slices topped with cheese and tomatoes into an air fryer basket.

Gently remove the toast from the air fryer. Garnish with a sprinkle of freshly chopped chives and drizzle over the crispy chilli oil. Slice open to reveal that perfectly runny yolk and enjoy hot!
