Air fryer Cinnamon Toast comes out perfectly crispy every time! The toast is the perfect combination of cinnamon and sugar and is delicious for breakfast or dessert.
I great up eating cinnamon toast. I felt like cinnamon toast and scrambled eggs were my go-to breakfasts. I also made cinnamon toast a lot in college, usually right before (or between) classes. But it always required turning on an oven and constantly checking on it to make sure it was that perfect amount of crispy browned, but not burned.
Now that air fryers are a thing, I've rediscovered my love for cinnamon toast AND found that it's so quick and easy to make in the air fryer. No need to turn on an oven. No need for the possibility of accidentally knocking the cinnamon toast off my oven rack, making a huge mess.
Now I can just pop cinnamon toast in my air fryer and it cooks up quickly and easily.
Ingredients
- Bread - I prefer brioche or Texas Toast

What to serve with the cinnamon toast
While air fryer cinnamon toast is delicious as a breakfast or snack on its own, I love pairing it with other foods too!
Air fryer breakfast potatoes make a great pairing if you're looking to make breakfast in your air fryer too!
I also love scrambled eggs with spinach or scrambled eggs with feta.
