Ingredients

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 the air fryer, secure lid and air fry for about 5 minutes. After that, flip the sticks over and drizzle them with the melted 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’d like and serve with maple syrup!

Notes

Tips:
Freezing: 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!
Toppings: These sticks are perfect just sprinkled with more cinnamon sugar (aka churro style), dusted with powdered sugar, or drizzled with maple syrup!
Bread: 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.
Air fryers: Because air fryers can vary in cooking time be sure to keep an eye on them so they don’t overcook.
