Let me tell you about my absolute favorite breakfast recipe that’s been making waves in my kitchen lately! Trust me, once you try these Air Fryer French Toast Sticks, you’ll never want to make breakfast any other way. They’re crispy on the outside, perfectly custardy on the inside, and honestly, they make me feel like a breakfast queen without all the fuss!
Y’all, I’ve been experimenting with this recipe for weeks (my family isn’t complaining!), and I’ve finally perfected it. The best part? It takes just 10 minutes in the air fryer. Like, hello? Who doesn’t have time for that?
What You’ll Need:
– 6 thick slices of brioche bread (Texas toast works too, but brioche is _chef’s kiss_)
– 2 large eggs
– 1/2 cup whole milk
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 tsp cinnamon
– 1/4 tsp nutmeg
– 2 tbsp sugar
– Butter spray for the air fryer
– Your favorite toppings (I’m a maple syrup and fresh berries kind of girl!)
Now, let’s get cooking, bestie!
1. Cut each bread slice into 3 even strips. Pro tip: slightly stale bread works even better!
1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar until well combined. Don’t skip the nutmeg – it’s my secret weapon for that extra oomph!
1. Dip each bread strip into the mixture, making sure to coat all sides. But don’t let it soak too long – we’re not making bread soup here! 😉
1. Spray your air fryer basket with butter spray (keeps things from sticking and adds extra yumminess).
1. Place the strips in your air fryer basket, leaving space between each piece. Don’t overcrowd – these babies need room to get crispy!
1. Air fry at 370°F for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through. They should be golden brown and slightly crispy on the outside.
Is your mouth watering yet? Because mine sure is!
