Easy Skillet Heart Egg Toast

Let’s make eggs on toast, but in a heart-shaped version that is perfect for Valentine’s Day! By using heart-shaped cookie cutters, you can achieve the perfect heart-shaped bread and fried eggs to start your day with a little extra love.

Easy Skillet Heart Egg Toast

We’re taking the classic breakfast of eggs and toast and turning it into a fun Valentine’s Day breakfast! You can really make this anytime you want to spread a little extra love.

The bread is toasted in the skillet, then the eggs are cooked next. You can make a big batch all at once using a large skillet.

Our Humane Harvest eggs come from hens raised in free-roaming environments and fed a pure vegetarian diet consisting of premium grains, seeds, and meal.

Try This Variation

If you love egg-in-a-hole, make a heart-shaped version! Use the large heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the bread, then use the small heart-shaped cookie cutter to make a smaller heart in the center.

Heat a skillet, add butter, and toast the heart-shaped bread. Crack the egg into the center heart and cook until the egg whites are mostly set. Flip and cook for 1-2 more minutes on the second side.

What You Need to Make Heart Eggs and Toast

• Humane Harvest Eggs

• Sourdough bread (or bread of choice)

• Butter

• Salt

• Heart-shaped cookie cutters in 2 sizes

You can make as many as you’d like—just adjust the eggs and bread accordingly!

How to Prep and Make This Recipe

1. Using the larger-sized heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut the bread into a heart shape.
   
   
   

2. Heat a skillet to medium heat and add a little butter. Toast the bread on both sides and remove it from the skillet. Using the back of a spoon, gently press the center of the bread down where the egg will sit to create a small divot.
   
   
   

3. Lower the heat to medium-low and add a little butter. Crack the egg into the pan and sprinkle it with a pinch of salt. Cook the egg sunny side up (without flipping) to keep the yolk bright and intact. Cover the pan with a lid to cook the egg white more quickly.
   
   

4. Remove the egg from the pan and slide it onto a cutting board. Use the smaller heart-shaped cutter to cut the egg into a heart shape, then slide it onto the heart toast.
   
   
   

5. Serve as is, or with hot sauce and minced chives. Repeat to make as many as you’d like!
