How to Make Air Fryer Cinnamon French Toast Sticks
Make the Custard: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F. Whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, cinnamon, brown sugar, and melted butter.
Dip the Bread: Dip each bread stick into the custard, turning to coat both sides.
Air Fry: Spray the basket with nonstick cooking spray and arrange the sticks in a single layer without touching. Air fry at 375°F for 3 minutes, flip and lightly spray, then cook another 3 minutes.
Serve: Repeat with the remaining sticks and serve warm with maple syrup and fresh berries.
Tips I Found Helpful 💙
- Use thick bread: It holds up better when dipped in the custard.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket: Leave space between the sticks so they crisp evenly.
- Work in batches: Keep each batch in a single layer for the best texture.
- Serve right away: French toast sticks are best warm and crispy from the air fryer.
