Description

Air Fryer Pumpkin French Toast is so soft, fluffy, and absolutely delicious, with a rich pumpkin flavor. French toast is so easy to make in the Air Fryer.

Ingredients 

  • 1 loaf French Bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon pumpkin puree
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon butter, unsalted and melted
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Slice the bread into sticks that are about 2 inches wide and about five inches long.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees.
  • In a large bowl combine the eggs and the milk. Add the cinnamon, sugar, pumpkin spice, and pumpkin purée. Mix well with a whisk.
  • Dip each stick of bread into the egg mixture, completely coating it. Place each stick in to the air fryer basket.
  • Place the basket in an air fryer, secure lid and air fry for about 5 minutes. After that flip the sticks over and drizzle with the butter. Air fry for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Sticks should be a nice golden brown but not overdone.
  • Remove from the air fryer. Dust with more cinnamon sugar if you wish,  add powdered sugar, and serve with maple syrup!

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Cooking Spray
  • Parchment Paper, optional

Notes

You can freeze some of the French toast sticks for a quick and easy breakfast later. Allow them to cool and then place them in plastic wrap or an airtight bag before freezing. When reheating - place them in the air fryer, oven, or microwave until heated throughout!
 
These sticks are perfect just sprinkled with more cinnamon sugar (aka churro style), dusted with powdered sugar, or drizzled with maple syrup! 
 
I used the soft French bread from the grocery store, you can also use the Italian bread or anything that is large and soft. Challah or Brioche work great as well! I used the whole loaf and made them in batches of 8 each. 
 
Because air fryers can vary in cooking time be sure to keep an eye on them so they don’t overcook!!
