Air Fryer French Toast Sticks
This air-fryer French toast recipe cuts the toast into strips that are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside and perfect for dipping into maple syrup or your favorite fruit compote.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- ¾ cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 slices whole-wheat sandwich bread
- cooking spray
Directions
- Whisk eggs, milk, sugar and vanilla together in a wide shallow dish. Cut bread slices into thirds lengthwise (24 pieces total).
- Preheat air fryer to 325°F for 3 minutes. Lightly coat the basket with cooking spray. Working in batches, dip 8 bread sticks in the egg mixture, flipping constantly, until completely soaked, about 15 seconds. Arrange the soaked bread sticks in an even layer in the prepared basket; coat with cooking spray. Cook, flipping and coating with additional cooking spray halfway, until golden brown and interior is no longer wet, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat the process 2 more times with the remaining bread sticks and egg mixture.
