Spread a thin layer of butter on each slice of toasted bread.
For added flavor, you can add slices of avocado or cherry tomatoes on top of the toast.
Cut the soft-boiled eggs in half and place them gently on the toast, with the jammy yolk side up.
- Season & Garnish:
Sprinkle the eggs with salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes or smoked paprika for a festive touch.
Garnish with chopped herbs like parsley or chives.
- Serve:
Serve immediately while warm, alongside a festive salad or Christmas morning mimosa.
Tips:

Use pomegranate seeds or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for a Christmas-inspired garnish.
