Ingredients

  • 8 slices bread like Texas toast or brioche, thickly sliced
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • cooking spray
  • maple syrup for serving

Instructions

  • Cut each slice of bread into four equal sticks.
  • In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar.
  • Dip each bread stick into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off. Don’t soak them too long, or they’ll get soggy.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  • Lightly grease the air fryer basket with butter or non-stick cooking spray. Arrange the bread sticks in the basket in a single layer, making sure they don’t overlap. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer. Air fry for 4 minutes, then flip the sticks and continue to air fry for another 4 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the French Toast Sticks hot with maple syrup for dipping and a sprinkle of powdered sugar.

Notes

  1. For the best texture, use thick-cut bread like Texas toast or brioche.
  2. If you prefer a less sweet version, you can reduce the sugar in the egg mixture.
  3. Remember to preheat your air fryer for the crispiest results.
