Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 slices thick, sturdy bread (such as brioche or challah)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk (or any milk alternative)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Custard Mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth. If desired, add a pinch of ground cinnamon to infuse the custard with warm spice notes.
  2. Soak the Bread: Dip each bread slice into the custard mixture, soaking for about 20 seconds per side. Ensure the bread is saturated but not falling apart; adjust soaking time based on bread type.
  3. Preheat Your Air Fryer: Set the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to preheat for 3-5 minutes to ensure even cooking and perfect crispness.
  4. Cook the Custard Toast: Place the soaked bread slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer without overlapping. Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the toast is golden brown and the custard is fully set.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Carefully remove the custard toast with a spatula, let cool slightly, then garnish or serve as desired for a creamy, crunchy bite every time.

Notes

  • Use thick, day-old bread to hold up better during soaking and air frying.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow for even air circulation and crisping.
  • Flip the toast halfway through cooking for balanced browning.
  • Adjust soak time to suit the type of bread used; softer breads need less time.
  • Monitor cooking closely the first time as air fryer models vary in heat and timing.
