• Eggs: Use large eggs as the base for the custard mixture.
• Milk: Whole milk or a combination of milk and heavy cream can create a creamy custard mixture.
• Vanilla extract: Add a splash of vanilla extract for flavoring.
• Cinnamon: A pinch of ground cinnamon adds warmth and depth of flavor to the French toast.
• Salt: A small pinch of salt helps balance the sweetness and enhances the overall flavor.

How to Make Ninja Woodfire Grill French Toast

Step 1: Preheat the Ninja Woodfire Grill to 350 degrees F, add about 1/2 cup of pellets.

Step 2: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and any other desired seasonings or flavors. Adjust the quantities based on the number of slices of bread you plan to use.

Step 3: Dip slices of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring that both sides are coated. Let any excess mixture drip off.

Step 4: Grease a casserole dish with cooking spray or melted butter. Add the soaked bread onto the casserole dish. If you have any leftover French Toast batter, pour it over the soaked bread. Cook at 350 degrees F, for 20-30 minutes.

Step 5: Gently press the bread with a spatula to check for firmness. The French toast should be cooked through and slightly crispy.

Step 6: Once the French toast is cooked to your liking, remove it from the grill and serve immediately. You can top it with syrup, fresh fruit, powdered sugar, or any other desired toppings.

Ninja Woodfire Grill French Toast Recipe Tips

• Choose the Right Bread: Thick slices like brioche, challah, or Texas toast soak up the egg mixture beautifully without falling apart.
• Don’t Skimp on Soaking: Let each slice sit in the egg mixture long enough to absorb flavor, but not so long it becomes mushy.
• Preheat Properly: Make sure the grill is fully heated to 350°F before cooking to get an even, golden crust.
• Use a Casserole Dish or Foil Pan: Keeps the French toast from sticking and makes clean-up easier.
• Customize Your Flavors: Add cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, or even a splash of orange zest to the egg mixture for extra flair.
• Toppings Matter: Fresh fruit, powdered sugar, or a drizzle of maple syrup take this French toast from good to “wow.”
• Check for Doneness: Insert a knife or toothpick in the center; it should come out clean when fully cooked.

Storing and Reheating Instructions

Storing: Let the French toast cool completely, then place it in an airtight container or wrap tightly in foil. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days.

Reheating: Reheat slices in the Ninja Woodfire Grill at 325°F for 5–7 minutes or until warmed through. You can also use a toaster oven or microwave for a quicker option.

Ninja Woodfire Grill French Toast Recipe Faqs

Can I use different types of bread for this recipe? Yes! Brioche, challah, or even thick-cut sandwich bread all work beautifully. Just adjust soaking time if the bread is very thick or dense.

Do I need to preheat the Ninja Woodfire Grill? Absolutely. Preheating to 350°F ensures even cooking and helps the French toast get those slightly crisp edges while staying soft inside.

Can I make this recipe ahead of time? You can prepare the egg mixture and soak the bread the night before, then refrigerate until ready to cook. Cook just before serving for best texture.

What toppings work best? Syrup, powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or a dollop of whipped cream are all excellent choices. You can also sprinkle cinnamon or drizzle chocolate for extra flavor.

Can I cook this on a regular oven instead of the grill? Yes! Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 20-30 minutes, just like on the Ninja Woodfire Grill.
