Crispy Feta Fried Eggs (Easy 12-Minute Breakfast)
If you’re bored of the same old fried eggs, Crispy Feta Fried Eggs will instantly upgrade your breakfast. Crumbled feta melts into the olive oil and turns golden and crispy (almost like a cheesy crust), while the eggs cook right on top with creamy, runny yolks. It’s rich, salty, crunchy, and unbelievably satisfying—perfect with crusty bread for dipping.

Notes
-
Use a non-stick skillet for easy release (feta crisps can stick).
-
Medium-high heat is key—too low and feta melts without crisping.
-
For extra crispy edges: let feta cook 30 seconds longer before adding eggs.
