Air Fryer

Ingredients

6 slices white bread cut into ½-inch thick slices
6 tablespoons Nutella or as needed
2 large eggs
¾ cup whole milk
3 tablepsoons sugar divided
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Spread Nutella between two slices of bread and press them together to form a sandwich.
Add the eggs, milk, two tablespoons sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and salt into a shallow bowl and whisk well to combine.
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F and grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
Place one sandwich at a time into the mixture, soaking each side for about 10 seconds, flipping twice to ensure both sides are well-coated.
Place the stuffed French toast in a single layer, air fry for 5 minutes.
Flip using a spatula, sprinkle about a teaspoon of sugar on each toast and continue cooking in the same temperature for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the tops look deep golden brown.
Repeat the process until all the bread is cooked. Serve hot with a dab of butter and maple syrup!

Notes

Bread thickness: Cut bread slices into about ½-inch thickness.

Types of bread to use: White sandwich bread, brioche, challah, soft Italian or French bread.

Grease the air fryer basket: Spray the basket with oil spray before placing the soaked bread into it to avoid sticking.

Make it without Nutella - Skip the Nutella stuffing and prepare the egg custard as instructed. Dip each slice of bread for about 10 seconds on each side. Air fry at 375°F for 4 minutes, flip, sprinkle with sugar, and continue air frying for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the tops are deep golden.
