Ingredients
  

  • 3 eggs
  • cup milk
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 6 slices thick sliced bread such as Brioche or Texas Toast
Additional serving suggestions:
  • Fresh fruit powdered sugar, butter, maple syrup

Instructions
 

  1. Spray the air fryer basket with a non-stick cooking spray or line it with a disposable air fryer liner. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the eggs, milk, spices, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until well combined.
  3. Dip one piece of bread into the egg mixture, let the excess drip off, and then place the coated bread into the air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may only be able to fit 2-3 pieces, so you’ll have to work in batches.
  4. Air fry at 360°F for 6 minutes. Flip it over and then air fry for 4-6 more minutes, or until the batter is cooked and the bread is golden. Repeat with the remaining pieces of bread.
  5. Transfer to a plate and serve with fresh cut fruit and warm maple syrup. Add a little butter and powdered sugar if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Make sure to use air fryer liners or to grease the air frying basket before using otherwise the bread will stick to the basket.
  • Use a thick bread such as thick sliced Brioche, Texas Toast, or Sourdough.
  • Quickly soak the bread but don’t leave it in the batter too long otherwise it may become soggy.
  • This recipe does not add sugar into the batter, but if you prefer it sweet, you can do so. The added maple sugar adds enough sweetness.
  • The first dipped bread usually takes up a lot of the spices, feel free to sprinkle additional spices directly onto the bread after dipping.
  • All air fryers will heat differently so after you flip it the first time, be sure to check it half way through the second heating time.
  • STORING: The good thing about air fryer recipes is that they are small batch! You shouldn’t have much leftovers. It’s best eaten fresh, but if there’s any you would like to save, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator (without fruit and maple syrup). Simply reheat for 30 seconds in the microwave when ready to enjoy again.
