Egg Flight Toast Delight (Printable)

A slice of toasted bread topped with three distinct egg preparations for varied flavors and textures.

# What You Need:

→ Bread

01 - 1 large slice sourdough or country-style bread

→ Eggs

02 - 1 large egg, scrambled
03 - 1 large egg, soft-boiled
04 - 1 large egg, fried

→ For Cooking

05 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
06 - 1 teaspoon olive oil
07 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

→ Garnishes (optional)

08 - Chopped fresh chives
09 - Chili flakes
10 - Microgreens

# Directions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Toast the slice of bread on a baking sheet for 5 to 7 minutes until golden and crisp. Set aside.
02 - Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Gently lower one egg into the water and cook for 6 and a half minutes for a soft-boiled yolk. Transfer the egg to ice water, peel, and halve.
03 - Heat half a tablespoon of butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Whisk one egg with a pinch of salt and pepper, then pour into the skillet. Stir gently with a spatula until just set and creamy. Remove from heat.
04 - Using the same (wiped) skillet, add half a tablespoon butter and one teaspoon olive oil over medium heat. Crack in the third egg and fry until the whites are set but the yolk remains runny, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
05 - Place the toasted bread on a plate. Arrange the scrambled egg on one third, the halved soft-boiled egg on the second third, and the fried egg on the last third.
06 - Garnish with chopped fresh chives, chili flakes, and microgreens if desired. Serve immediately.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • Three egg textures in one bite means you never get bored halfway through breakfast.
  • It looks like you spent hours cooking when really you just coordinated some things happening at the same time.
  • That moment when you break into the soft-boiled yolk and it runs all over the crispy toast is pure kitchen magic.
02 -
  • The soft-boiled egg needs exactly 6 and a half minutes or your whole concept falls apart, so invest in a timer you actually trust.
  • Wiping out the skillet between the scrambled and fried eggs prevents flavors from getting confused and makes everything taste brighter.
  • Serving immediately is non-negotiable because cold scrambled eggs are sad, and you've come too far to let toast get soggy.
03 -
  • Don't skip the ice bath for the soft-boiled egg—it stops the cooking instantly and guarantees that perfect runny yolk every single time.
  • Use the same skillet for all three eggs if you're feeling lazy, but wipe it between the scrambled and fried step so flavors don't muddy together.
  • If your toast is threatening to go soft under all that egg, eat it with a knife and fork like a civilized person instead of trying to pick it up with your hands.
