Toast the bread: While the eggs are warming in the sauce, toast the bread slices until crisp and golden. You want enough structure in the toast to stand up to the creamy topping.

Assemble and serve: Place the toast on plates and spoon the creamed eggs generously over the top, letting some sauce spill over the sides. Finish with an extra grind of black pepper if you like, and serve immediately while hot.
