Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bread slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- 1 piece Egg
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Chopped scallions or parsley (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) or set your toaster oven to the bake setting.
Lightly butter one side of each bread slice and place them butter-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the bread slices, ensuring full coverage for gooey, cheesy goodness.
In a small bowl, crack the egg and lightly beat it with a fork. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
If desired, pour the egg mixture evenly over the cheese-topped bread slices, allowing it to soak slightly into the cheese and bread.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted, bubbly, and slightly golden around the edges.
Optional: Sprinkle chopped scallions or parsley and red pepper flakes on top for added flavor before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your cheesy breakfast toast with your favorite morning beverage.
