Ingredients
- ✓4 large eggs
- ✓180 ml shredded cheddar or feta cheese
- ✓30 ml honey
- ✓0.5 tsp red pepper flakes
- ✓15 ml butter
- ✓1 pinch sea salt
- ✓1 pinch black pepper
- ✓2 slices crusty bread
Instructions
1
In a small bowl, mix the honey and red pepper flakes together. Set aside to let the flavors infuse while cooking.
💡
Tip:Warm the honey in the microwave for 5-10 seconds to make it easier to drizzle.
2
Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly across the skillet floor into small rounds or one uniform bed.
💡
Tip:Let the cheese melt and start sizzling before adding the eggs.
3
Crack the eggs directly on top of the bubbling cheese layer. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover with a lid, and cook until the whites are set and the cheese forms a crispy brown crust underneath.
💡
Tip:Covering the pan helps cook the top of the egg whites while keeping the yolk runny.
4
Transfer the cheesy fried eggs onto toasted crusty bread slices. Drizzle generously with the prepared hot honey, season with salt and black pepper, and serve immediately.
📝 Chef's Notes
Best enjoyed immediately while the cheese retains its crisp texture and the yolk remains runny.
