Instructions

To start, prepare the egg mixture for your French toast. In a shallow dish, combine eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Whisk the ingredients until they are well combined.
2 eggs, ½ cup milk, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the best results, use stale slices of bread. Stale bread will better absorb the egg mixture without becoming too soggy. If you don't have stale bread, leave fresh slices of bread out for a few hours or even overnight to dry them out. Place each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds, flip, and soak on the second side. Be careful not to over-soak the bread, as it may become too soggy and fall apart when cooking.
2 slices bread
Before arranging the bread in the air fryer basket, preheat your air fryer to around 370-390 degrees F.
After preheating is completed, line the basket with parchment paper to prevent the French toast from sticking. Spray parchment paper with cooking spray or melt 1 teaspoon of butter on the parchment and brush to coat with a silicone pastry brush.
Place the soaked bread slices in a single layer on the parchment paper-lined basket, ensuring that they don't overlap.
1 teaspoon butter
Air fry the French toast for 4-6 minutes, then carefully flip the slices and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Cooking times may vary slightly depending on the type of air fryer you have so keep an eye on your French toast to ensure it doesn't overcook. Once the French toast is golden brown and crispy on the outside, remove it from the air fryer and serve.
