Delicious and convenient air fryer French toast sticks offer a crispy outside and soft inside, perfect for dipping and customization.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 6 slices slices of bread (thick-cut works best, such as Texas toast or brioche)
- 3 large large eggs
- 1 cup milk (or milk alternative)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons sugar (or alternative sweetener)
- 1 pinch salt
For Cooking and Serving
- Cooking spray To prevent sticking
- Maple syrup For serving
- Optional toppings: powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or whipped cream Customize to taste
Instructions
Preparation
- Cut the bread into thirds to form sticks.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, sugar, and salt until well combined.
- Dip each bread stick into the egg mixture, ensuring each side is well-coated but not overly soggy.
Cooking
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about five minutes.
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Arrange the dipped bread sticks in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they do not overlap.
- Cook the sticks for about 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
- Once done, remove them from the basket and repeat the process with the remaining sticks, if necessary.
- Serve warm, along with your favorite dipping sauces and toppings.
