Step-by-Step Instructions for Egg and Cheese Toasts

Preheat your oven to 400°F or set your air fryer to 370°F.
Lightly toast your thick slices of bread for 1-2 minutes on each side until just golden.
In a mixing bowl, crack your eggs and beat them gently with a fork. Add your grated cheese, fresh herbs, salt, black pepper, and optional cayenne. Stir until combined.
Spread the egg and cheese mixture evenly over your toasted bread.
Place your toasts in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or air fry for 5-7 minutes.
Once out of the oven or air fryer, let the toasts cool slightly for about 2 minutes before serving.
