Ingredients
French Toast Ingredients
- 6 slices bread
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until fully combined and smooth.
- Dip the Bread: Take each slice of bread and dip it into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds ensuring it absorbs enough liquid but does not become soggy.
- Arrange in Air Fryer: Lightly grease the air fryer basket or spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Place the dipped bread slices in a single layer inside the basket, making sure they do not overlap.
- Cook the French Toast: Set the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and cook the bread slices for 8 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to achieve even browning on both sides.
- Serve: Once cooked to a golden crispy finish, carefully remove the French toast from the air fryer. Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, or powdered sugar.
Notes
- Use day-old or slightly stale bread for best soaking results without falling apart.
- Greasing the air fryer basket helps prevent sticking and makes cleanup easier.
- Adjust cooking time slightly depending on your air fryer model and bread thickness.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or substitute milk with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
