Equipment

Steps

1
Cut bread slices into 3-4 thick sticks each.
2
Whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. Dip each stick briefly — don't soak or they get soggy.
3
Spray basket with cooking spray. Arrange sticks in a single layer.
4
Air fry at 375°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
5
Toss in cinnamon sugar while hot. Serve with maple syrup for dipping.

💡

Tip: Use day-old bread — fresh bread is too soft and falls apart. Quick dips only; soaking makes them mushy inside. Thick-cut bread like Texas toast holds up best.
