French toast sticks

Name: French toast sticks
Yield: 12 sticks
Ingredients: Non-aerosol cooking spray; 1 large egg; ½ cup water; 2 tsp brown sugar; ½ tsp cinnamon; Pinch of salt; 4 1-inch slices of brioche (about a third of a standard loaf); Maple syrup, for serving

Cutting French toast into sticks turns it into a dunkable finger food and creates more surface area to get nice and crunchy in the air fryer. If you’d like to use the whole loaf of brioche, triple the recipe, cooking the sticks in batches.

Appliance: Crispinator®
Setting: Bake · 425°F
Makes: 12 sticks
Level: Easy

Ingredients

Non-aerosol cooking spray
1 large egg
½ cup water
2 tsp brown sugar
½ tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
4 1-inch slices of brioche (about a third of a standard loaf)
Maple syrup, for serving

Method

Spray air fryer rack with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk the egg with the water, sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
Cut each slice of brioche into 3 1-inch sticks.
Carefully toss the brioche sticks in the egg mixture until well-coated.
Remove the brioche sticks from the egg mixture, letting the excess drain off, then transfer to air fryer basket, arranging them in one even layer.
Lightly spray the tops of the bread with cooking spray and slide the basket into the air fryer.
Set the air fryer to Bake at 425°F for 8 minutes, then press Start | Stop.
Open the air fryer basket and let the French toast rest in basket for 1 to 2 minutes before carefully removing to avoid sticks tearing.
Use a spatula to carefully transfer French toast sticks to a plate, and serve hot with syrup.
