Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 5 minutes; Total time approx. 15 minutes

Vegetarian, low carb and gluten-free options available, kids love it

Preheat the oven briefly. 140-150 degrees Celsius is sufficient; only the cheese needs to melt. If you want it crispy, toast the bread beforehand. For children, one slice of bread and perhaps just one egg will suffice. Spread the toasted bread with a little butter and place a slice of cheese on each slice. Prepare a 24 cm diameter pan. Add a little butter to the pan. Prepare two small bowls. Pour one egg white into each bowl and set the yolks aside; I leave them in the half of the eggshell. Now color each egg white with food coloring. You can either use the tubes (they contain sugar, but you can’t tell the taste) or organic powder (with coloring foods and spices). Color until the desired color intensity is achieved. Beat well with a fork (it will foam slightly). Finely chop the parsley or chives, if desired. Place the bread slices in the oven. Turn on the stove (starting on high), melt the butter, and add one egg white to the pan. Hold the pan slightly to the side so that the first egg white is only spread to the center. After about 5 seconds, pour the other egg white into the remaining half. Reduce the heat. When the egg white begins to set, add the yolk. Carefully slide the yolk onto the egg white and hold it briefly until it sets. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika, and sprinkle with herbs. Remove the slices of bread with the melted cheese from the oven, place them side by side on a plate, and add the eggs. This is also great as a surprise birthday breakfast. If you like, you can also add fried onions or roasted onions to the egg, or even use a slice of ham. It’s up to you. This recipe is very versatile. In my photo, one of the yolks (the green-yellow one) burst while placing it, so I simply pushed the other one into the center.
