Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 crumpets
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Prepare the egg mixture: Crack the eggs into a shallow bowl and beat them thoroughly using a fork until smooth and well combined.
- Soak the crumpets: Dip each crumpet into the beaten egg mixture, pressing them gently on both sides so they absorb the egg thoroughly like a sponge.
- Prepare the air fryer: Line the air fryer rack with a sheet of tin foil or an air fryer liner to facilitate easy cleanup. Spray the liner lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Air fry the crumpets: Place the soaked crumpets carefully onto the prepared liner inside the air fryer. Cook at 200°C (392°F) for about 6 minutes. Flip the crumpets halfway through cooking using silicone tongs to ensure even browning on both sides and the egg is fully cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the eggy bread crumpets from the air fryer once nicely browned and heated throughout. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Use silicone tongs to easily flip the crumpets without damaging them or the air fryer liner.
- Make sure the crumpets are fully soaked in the egg mixture for the best texture.
- Adjust air frying time slightly depending on your air fryer model to avoid burning.
- Serve with your favorite toppings like syrup, butter, or fresh fruit for added flavor.
