How to make Air Fryer French Toast

• Prepare the bread and egg mixture: 
  • Slice brioche or challah bread into thick slices. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, add egg, cream/half and half, vanilla, and cinnamon; whisk to combine completely; set aside
• Make an assembly line: setup whisked egg mixture and bread next to each other.
• Spray the air fryer basket with nonstick oil spray (I like to use a MISTO SPRAYER like this one) or use a parchment paper liner so the bread doesn’t stick to the basket (this is important).
• Dip the slices of bread into the egg mixture being sure to flip and coat both sides. Lift out of the mixture and allow to drip for a few seconds, then place into the air fryer basket. Repeat for remaining slices
  • I fit 4 slices in my air fryer, however you may fit more or less depending on the size of your air fryer.
  • You may have to do 2-3 batches in the air fryer. Do not overcrowd or they will not get crispy.

• Close the Air Fryer and set to 400 degrees and 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, open the basket and carefully flip the french toast slices. Close the air fryer and cook 3-4 more minutes at 400 degrees. Time may vary slightly depending in air fryer model.
• Remove the french toast when finished and then cook remaining french toast slices.
• Serve with warm maple syrup and powdered sugar or your favorite toppings!

How to Freeze Air Fryer French Toast:

• Let the french toast cool completely. Place slices in a freezer safe bag (like these reusable ones), and then press out air before sealing. Place in the freezer for up to 3 months.

How to cook frozen french toast in the Air Fryer:

• Remove the frozen french toast from the bag. Place in the air fryer and cook for 3 minutes at 400 degrees. Flip over and cook another 2 minutes.
• Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
