Happy World Egg Day! Yes, today, 13 October, is the best day of the year to eat some eggs! Thanks to Australian Eggs, we’ve got a great little recipe for anyone with an air fryer. Start your weekend off on a delicious high with hash brown toast, the best thing since sliced bread that, ironically, requires no bread at all.
This is one of the many things to love about this recipe – it actually doesn’t require the most common breakfast ingredient – bread, which is perfect if you’re trying to reduce your carb intake or on those ‘haven’t-grocery-shopped-in-a-while-and-there’s-no-bread-in-this-house’ days. No bread needed!
How to make air fryer hash brown toast
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Serves: 2
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
- Cooking oil spray
- 4 frozen store-bought hash browns
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 eggs
- ½ largea vocado, peeled and sliced
- Chilli flakes (optional)
Method
- Spray the basket of an air fryer with cooking oil spray. Place hash browns in the basket and spray with oil. Cook on 200°C for 8 minutes, turn over, spray with oil and cook for a further 6-8 minutes or until crisp and golden.
- While the hash browns are cooking, heat oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and fry eggs for 3 minutes or until the edges are crispy and the yolk is still runny.
- Place one hash brown onto a serving plate and top with slices of avocado and fried egg. Sandwich with remaining hash browns.
- If using chilli flakes sprinkle over the hot egg. Serve immediately.
And there you have it – hash brown toast, the perfect protein-packed brekkie for World Egg Day, and any other day.
