Notes
Here are some simple tips to help you make the best cheesy egg toast:
- For the best results, I like to use firm, fresh bread like baguette, sourdough, rye, or ciabatta.
- Make sure to whisk the eggs well before adding the cheese - this helps create a smooth, even texture in the topping.
- Don’t overload the bread with too much egg mixture. I spread a generous but even layer to avoid spilling over as it cooks.
- Keep a close eye while broiling. The cheese can go from golden to burnt quickly - check at the 7-minute mark and monitor closely.
- You can also bake a smaller batch in your toaster oven.
- Let the toast cool for a minute or two before serving - it helps the topping set and makes it easier to eat.
