How to Cook BK French Toast Sticks in the Air Fryer
Step One: In a large bowl, add the eggs and milk, and using a hand mixer, mix on high, then fold in the granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and kosher salt. Slowly add in the flour.
Step Two: Use a sharp knife to remove the crust from your bread. Then slice the bread slice into 4 equal pieces. Continue with the rest of the bread.
Step Three: Add your bread to the large mixing bowl with the French Toast Batter, and allow the bread to sit in the mixture for about 1-2 minutes.
Step Four: Line Your air fryer basket with parchment paper, then spray the parchment paper with cooking spray. Place your batter French toast sticks into the air fryer basket, leaving space around the French toast sticks. Set the cooking time for 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees F, and flip halfway during the cooking process. Remove when golden brown.
Step Five: Serve with Maple Syrup, honey, or fresh fruit.
Air Fryer Burger King French Toast Sticks Recipe Tips
- Place the French toast sticks in a single layer in the air fryer basket, and do not overcrowd them. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
- Since all air fryers are slightly different, you must watch the French Toast sticks as they cook up and remove them when golden brown.
- Add some cinnamon and sugar to the batter for extra flavor. And a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top is always a nice touch!
