Did you know that you can make french toast in the air fryer? Well, as it turns out, you totally can and it’s super simple and easy to do! And you know what’s better? It only takes is six ingredients and just a few minutes of hands on time! I started this Air Fryer French Toast with some of my favorite whole wheat and multi-grain bread.

French toast is pretty standard across the board, but I did lighten the egg mixture up just a bit by using an unsweetened almond milk instead of cream. Trust me when I say, you won’t notice the simple swap. Other than that, the egg mixture is loaded up with plenty of cinnamon goodness…

I’ve been doing a lot of baking lately. Especially now that I got ALL NEW appliances in my kitchen finally! I’ve been waiting to do it for years and years now and I finally was able to do so. Between that, limiting trips to the store, and having my hands on a handy-dandy bread maker, I’ve been a bread making fool!

This French Bread is simple. It’s as standard as bread comes and is made with just a handful of pantry staple ingredients. Flour, oil, salt, sugar, yeast, that’s pretty much all there is to it. I have to say, even if you don’t have a bread machine, this bread is still pretty easy to make and will easily rival any fresh bakery bread…
