I like breakfast. I eat it every day. Usually cereal, but sometimes it's nice to have something a little different. These were good, but I wouldn't call them anything special.
- 3 large eggs
- 2-3 Tbsp milk
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 6 oz hearty white bread cut into large cubes
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- avocado oil or parchment paper
- toppings: powdered sugar, maple syrup, strawberries
In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs, milk, maple syrup, and salt until well combined. Add all the bread cubes to the egg mixture. Use tongs to mix well; until egg mixture has been soaked up and no dry spots remain. As you mix, sprinkle the cinnamon over the bread.
Use a paper towel to generously wipe avocado oil on the bottom of the air fryer basket, or line with air fryer safe parchment paper. Place the soaked bread cubes into air fryer in a single layer, not touching as much as possible. Air fry at 350 degrees for 7-9 minutes, checking and shaking the basket after 5 minutes. Separate any cubes stuck together and continue cooking until the French toast bites are crispy and golden brown.
Serve immediately. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within 3 days. Leftovers can be reheated in the air fryer at 350 degrees for 3-4 minutes.
NOTES: We used Texas-style white bread and cut each slice into 9 pieces.
We ended up putting some of the soaked bread pieces in the toaster oven for a few minutes while they waited their turn in the air fryer. This definitely sped up the process a bit (since the air fryer couldn't hold all the pieces we needed to feed all three of us).
