- 1 Tbsp canned corn (drained)
- A pinch of dried parsley (for garnish)

- 4-5 mini king oyster mushrooms (sliced into bite-sized pieces)
- 1/3 green chili pepper (optional, for a spicy kick, remove seeds and mince finely)

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the various topping ingredients that will add flavor to your pizza toast. Thinly slice the onion for a pleasant texture.
Step 2
Slice the mini king oyster mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. If sliced too small, they might lose their texture when cooked.
Step 3
If you enjoy a bit of heat, finely mince the green chili pepper and add it. It makes a great substitute for bell peppers and offers a surprisingly complementary flavor!
Step 4
Thinly slice the fresh cherry tomatoes into 3 or 4 wedges.
Step 5
Remove the pits from the black olives and slice them thinly. Olives add a wonderful depth of flavor to the pizza.
Step 6
And there you have it – all your topping ingredients are ready! The variety of fresh ingredients promises a delicious outcome.
Step 7
Now, let’s start making the pizza toast. Take one slice of bread and spread a generous layer of tomato spaghetti sauce evenly over the entire surface. Ensure the sauce soaks into the bread for maximum flavor.
Step 8
Transfer the sauced bread to a microwave-safe plate. Next, pipe a ring of mayonnaise around the edges of the bread. This mayonnaise border will act as a barrier to prevent the egg from spilling out.
Step 9
Drizzle a good amount of honey inside the mayonnaise ring. About 2 tablespoons creates a perfect sweet and savory balance. Honey is truly the secret ingredient that makes this pizza toast incredibly delicious – don’t skip it!
Step 10
Carefully crack the fresh egg into the space created by the mayonnaise and honey.
Step 11
The mayonnaise wall effectively contains the egg. Gently prick the egg yolk with the tip of a chopstick to break it. This helps it cook more evenly and creates a wonderfully creamy texture.
Step 12
Microwave for about 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes, just until the egg white is set and the yolk is still runny (soft-boiled). Be careful not to overcook it.
Step 13
Carefully move the microwaved bread onto an oven tray or into an air fryer basket. Prepare your oven or air fryer for baking.
Step 14
Begin layering the prepared toppings. Start by placing the thinly sliced onion over the cooked egg.
Step 15
Add a generous amount of sliced mushrooms on top of the onions. The mushrooms will add a wonderful earthy flavor.
Step 16
Arrange the sliced cherry tomatoes attractively over the mushrooms. While tomatoes are great, adding pineapple chunks would also bring a delightful sweet and tangy twist!
Step 17
Now, sprinkle on the sliced black olives, drained canned corn, and the minced green chili pepper. This combination of colors and flavors makes it visually appealing and delicious.
Step 18
Finally, generously top with mozzarella cheese and sprinkle with dried parsley for a beautiful finish. Your tempting pizza toast is almost ready!
Step 19
Bake in a preheated oven or air fryer at 180°C (350°F) for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown, and the toppings are heated through.
Step 20
After about 12 minutes, the cheese is perfectly melted and golden, and the top of the toast looks beautifully browned and appetizing. It’s a feast for the eyes!
Step 21
Serve immediately while it’s hot and fresh from the oven! A warm, freshly baked pizza toast is truly irresistible. Enjoy making and savoring this delicious treat!
