Servings:*

3 servings

Ingredients

  • 5 slices brioche bread, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • ¼ cup rough chopped pecans
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ cup whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¾ teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
  • Ground nutmeg
  • Kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing
  • 1 tablespoon packed dark brown sugar
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting
  • Maple syrup, for serving
  • Fresh fruit, for serving

Directions

  1. Heat the air fryer to 350 F. Grease 2 12- to 16-ounce ramekins with butter. 

  2. Divide and layer the bread and pecans between the ramekins.

  3. In a large liquid measuring cup, beat the eggs. Whisk in the milk, sugar, vanilla extract, ¼ teaspoon of the cinnamon, and a pinch each of nutmeg and salt until well combined. 

  4. Evenly pour the custard over the bread. 

  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, the remaining ¼ teaspoon cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Using a spoon, evenly drizzle the cinnamon sugar butter over the bread.

  6. Cover the ramekins tightly with aluminum foil. Air fry the French toast for 25 minutes, remove the foil, and continue to air fry until the centers are set and the tops are crispy, 5 minutes.

  7. Let the French toast cool for about 5 minutes before serving.

  8. Dust the French toast with powdered sugar and serve with a drizzle of maple syrup and a side of fresh fruit.
