Eggs Florentine Toast
Simple Eggs Florentine in Toast (An Easy Brunch Classic)
I do love an eggy bite of something mid-morning. Put the egg into the middle of a perfectly golden, buttery, fried piece of bread, add that hollandaise, and of course some wilted spinach, or smoked salmon, or crispy bacon and hello! Perfection on a plate. This recipe is easily made to order.
This simple Eggs Florentine on toast is proof that a classic brunch favourite doesn’t need a long ingredient list or restaurant-level fuss. Soft eggs, buttery spinach and buttery toast come together in minutes, making it perfect for a lazy weekend breakfast or a quick, elegant brunch at home. Comforting, timeless and endlessly adaptable — this is one you’ll make on repeat.
