You may never make french toast in a skillet again. This Air Fryer French Toast is a dream breakfast – fast, filling and sinfully delicious.
My Air Fryer French Toast is kind of a hybrid. It tastes like decadent french toast. But baking it in individual cups makes it seem kind of like a bread pudding dessert. This french toast puffs up like a fancy soufflé. I could not be more pleased with how these turned out. It would make an easy (yet impressive) breakfast for kids to fix for Mom. The french toast is custardy in the middle, but a little crispy on top and sides. I love the texture combination! Top it with a little butter, maple syrup and fresh berries and it looks like a fancy bed and breakfast type dish.
