This Air Fryer French Toast recipe offers a quick and easy way to enjoy a classic breakfast favorite with a perfectly crispy outside and tender inside. Using Texas toast and a flavorful egg mixture infused with cinnamon and brown sugar, the air fryer crisps up each slice without the need for excessive butter or oil, making it a lighter option compared to traditional pan-frying methods. Serve it hot with maple syrup and powdered sugar for a delightful morning treat.

Ingredients

Scale

French Toast Ingredients

  • 6 slices Texas toast
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Slice the Bread: Slice each piece of Texas toast into three strips to create smaller, more manageable pieces for air frying.
  2. Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined, creating a flavorful soaking mixture.
  3. Prep the Air Fryer Basket: Lightly spray the basket of your air fryer with cooking oil spray to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
  4. Dip the Bread: Quickly dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring it is coated well but not oversaturated, then place each slice in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between pieces for air circulation. Work in batches if necessary.
  5. Air Fry the French Toast: Set the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) and cook the bread slices for 7 minutes or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through, flipping halfway if your air fryer requires it for even cooking.
  6. Serve: Remove the French toast from the air fryer and serve immediately with a dusting of powdered sugar and a drizzle of maple syrup for a classic finish.

Notes

  • Use Texas toast for thick, sturdy slices that hold up well during dipping and air frying.
  • For extra flavor, add a splash of vanilla extract to the egg mixture.
  • If your air fryer basket tends to stick, consider lining it with parchment paper designed for air fryers.
  • Adjust cooking time slightly depending on the thickness of your bread and your specific air fryer model.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture, as air-fried French toast is crispiest fresh out of the air fryer.
