Ingredients

Wet batter

2 large eggs
½ cup + 2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon sugar optional
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 pinches salt

Additional ingredients

4 slices bread
Maple syrup for serving

Instructions

Add all wet batter ingredients into a shallow pie plate or baking dish and whisk until well combined and sugar is dissolved.
Place bread slices, one or two at a time into the egg mixture (let it soak for 5-10 seconds on each side), flip to make sure both sides of bread are well-coated.
TIP - Soaking time depends on the sturdiness of the bread used. Soft breads like brioche needs to be soaked less whereas wheat or whole grain needs longer time.
Grease the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray and gently place 2 bread slices in a single layer and spray a coating of cooking spray on top.
Cook at 340°F for 3-4 minutes, flip and continue cooking for another 3 to 4 minutes.
Repeat process with the remaining two bread slices. Serve french toasts with softened butter, maple syrup and fresh berries.

Notes

Types of bread to use - Any variety like sandwich, brioche, challah, Texas toast, whole grain or wheat bread.

Type of milk to use - Whole milk is recommended, since this recipe does not use any butter while cooking. But, use whatever you have in the refrigerator. Dairy free milk is also good!

Sweeteners – We have used plain sugar. However, other sweeteners like brown sugar, coconut sugar, honey or maple syrup can be used instead.

Flavorings – Apart from vanilla extract, other flavorings that will be delicious are ground Cinnamon / freshly grated Nutmeg / Almond extract
