Ingredients
  

For the Toast
  • 2 slices Sourdough Bread Consider whole-grain or gluten-free options if preferred.
For the Eggs
  • 2 large Eggs Aim for a slightly runny consistency.
  • 2 tablespoons Chives Can be swapped with green onions or omitted.
  • 1 pinch Coarse Salt Sea salt or kosher salt can be used as alternatives.
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter Olive oil is a great dairy-free substitute.
For the Topping
  • 1/2 cup Ricotta Cheese Use whole milk ricotta for best results, draining excess liquid.

Equipment

  • nonstick skillet
  • Whisk
  • toaster

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add chopped chives along with a pinch of coarse salt. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy, about 30 seconds.
  2. Place a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Allow it to melt gently.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently stir with a spatula. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly until the eggs are almost set but still slightly runny.
  4. Gently fold in the ricotta cheese into the partially cooked eggs without overmixing.
  5. Toast slices of sourdough bread until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Place the toasted bread on a serving plate and pile the creamy egg and ricotta mixture on top. Serve immediately.

Notes

Perfectly cooked eggs are removed before fully set for a creamy texture. Room temperature ricotta spreads easily and prevents tearing the toast.
