Learn how to make fluffy soft eggs over crispy garlic toast—an easy, elegant breakfast or brunch ready in minutes with bold flavor.
Ingredients
For the Fluffy Soft Eggs:
-
4 large eggs
-
2 tablespoons whole milk or cream (optional)
-
Salt and black pepper, to taste
-
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
For the Crispy Garlic Toast:
-
2–4 slices of rustic bread (sourdough, ciabatta, or country bread)
-
2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
-
1 clove garlic, halved
-
Pinch of salt
Optional Toppings:
-
Chopped herbs (chives, parsley, dill)
-
Grated cheese (cheddar, Parmesan, Gruyère)
-
Sliced avocado or tomatoes
-
Red pepper flakes or hot sauce
Instructions
-
Whisk the eggs: In a bowl, beat eggs with milk or cream (if using), salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
-
Make garlic toast: Brush both sides of the bread with olive oil or butter. Toast in a hot skillet or oven until golden and crisp. Rub with garlic while warm and sprinkle with salt.
-
Cook the eggs: Melt butter in a nonstick pan over low heat. Pour in eggs and stir slowly and continuously with a spatula. Cook gently, forming soft curds. Remove from heat when just set.
-
Assemble: Place toast on plates, top with fluffy eggs, and finish with your favorite toppings. Serve immediately.
Notes
-
Cook eggs low and slow for the softest, fluffiest texture.
-
Toast the bread well—the crunch balances the creamy eggs.
-
Don’t overcook the eggs—they should still be slightly runny when removed from heat.
-
Use quality bread for best flavor and structure.
-
Add fresh herbs or cheese for extra richness and color.
