If you’ve been searching for a breakfast that feels indulgent without demanding much from you before your morning coffee kicks in, this is it. Pesto Eggs on Toast is the kind of recipe that sounds too good to be simple — yet here we are. Fragrant basil pesto doubles as both a cooking fat and a flavor bomb, coating the bottom of each egg in a rich, herby crust as it cooks. Pile that onto thick, buttery golden toast and you’ve got a breakfast (or lunch, or honestly dinner) that looks like it came from a trendy café and took maybe ten minutes to pull together.

Start by buttering both sides of each piece of bread. Heat a griddle pan over medium heat, add the bread, and toast on each side.

While the bread toasts, add the pesto to a large skillet over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, crack the eggs on top of the pesto. Cover and let cook until the eggs are the desired doneness. Less if you like runny yolks, more if you like firm yolks.

Transfer the toast to plates and top each with one egg. The bottom of each egg will be nicely coated in pesto.

Sprinkle a little parmesan over the top before serving. And if you like a little heat, some hot sauce. Enjoy!
