Notes
If your air fryer doesn't have a preheating option, you can set the temperature to 380°F (193°C) and then let it cook for 4-5 minutes without food.
You may also skip preheating by adding 2-3 minutes to your cooking time. However, be sure to check the toast constantly to prevent them from getting charred.
Brioche bread will work best for making French toasts. However, for a cheaper and healthier option, you can substitute it with multi-grain or any other type of bread that is readily available.
Pro Tip: Don't soak the bread slices in the egg mixture for too long, otherwise, it will become soggy. If possible, place them in the preheated air fryer right after soaking each bread slice.
For even coating and convenience, choose a medium-sized baking dish or any container with a flat base for your custard mixture, allowing more room to dip your bread.
I used a 6-quart Instant Pot Vortex Plus to test the air fryer French toast recipe. Cooking time and temperature may vary depending on your air fryer and the number of servings you are making. For optimal results, begin with the lower end of the suggested cooking time.
