Have you ever thought of making your favorite toast in the air fryer? I haven't ever before I have tried it in the air fryer. It's quick, easy, and crispy. Must-try.

Do you love crispy toasted bread, but don't love the added calories? With an air fryer, you can have delicious toast without all of the fat. And, it's so easy to use that even a beginner can do it. Let us see how to make air fryer toast.
The best thing about an air fryer is that it cooks food evenly. No more burnt toast. With an air fryer, you can cook your food to perfection every time. The air fryer is a much healthier way to cook than traditional frying methods.
You just need to set your timing for first 1 - 2 time, since all the air fryers cook differently and timing may vary by 2 - 3 minutes plus or minus.
Now when I make the air fryer toast, it comes out perfect every time with a nice crispy texture and golden in color. I love to make this along with air fryer hard-boiled eggs for breakfast.

Bread Slices - white, brown, whole wheat, multigrain, etc whatever type you love to add to your breakfast or snacks.

How To Make Air Fryer Toasts?
Preheat the air fryer at 400 F for 3 minutes. Place the slices of bread on the rack or in the basket. Make sure to arrange the slices in a single layer. Don't stalk them one on one.
Now cook at 400 F for 3 to 4 minutes for crispy golden brown toasts. Flip the slices halfway through.
Top it with peanut butter, plain salted butter, or jam, and serve hot. Berry Compote makes an awesome topping on the toast too.

F A Qs
Any kind of bread works for this recipe. However, the timing may vary by 1 minute if the slices are a little thicker. I have tried the same recipe with white bread, brown bread, multigrain bread, and whole wheat bread. It works the best
It takes 3 - 4 minutes at 400 F (200 C) for a crispy golden toast in the air fryer. If the slices are thinner, try cooking them for 3 minutes at first. The thick slices may take up to 5 - 6 minutes.
Yes, absolutely you can make French toast easily in the air fryer. That might take 3 - 4 minutes more than the plain toast.
The thicker slices will not fly even after getting cooked. However, the thin slices may get lighter and fly inside the air fryer because of the high-speed rotating fan that spread the heat inside. There is no need for an alarm unless it gets stuck in the heating coil. However, to prevent this, you can place a baking rack above the slices that will hold the bread from getting stuck in the heating coil.
For this recipe, I would recommend preheating the air fryer. This will help in understanding the exact time your air fryer takes to make the perfect crispy bread toast.
