Spicy Crispy Yolk Toast 🍳 These were inspired by Turkish Eggs (çilbir) that from what I hear aren’t common in Turkey… what do you think? either way, they were my inspo ❤️ and of course my crispy yolks… can’t get enough of those! These are also a variation of my crispy yolk toast, but this is the spicy edition!
Why You’ll Love Spicy Crispy Yolk Toast
Crispy yolks are a main character and my love letter to yolks. They are sooo good and runny which is such a nice surprise. These are so flavorful, and you won’t be able to get enough! They are spicy and delicious.
