Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 croissants large
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 Tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • oil (canola or avocado) for brushing on air fryer basket

Instructions

  • Slice each croissant in half lengthwise and set aside.
  • In a casserole dish large enough for dipping croissants, add the milk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine.
  • Brush or spray the air fryer basket with oil (do this in between cooking each batch of croissants).
  • Dip 2 croissant halves in egg mixture, flipping so both sides are coated, then place in the air fryer basket cut side up. Air fry at 380 degrees F for 4 minutes, flip, then air fryer an additional 1-2 minutes.
  • Remove croissant. Repeat with rest of croissant halves until all croissants are dipped in egg mixture and cooked cooked.
  • Plate, and top as desired.

Notes

  • Brush the air fryer basket with more oil in between air frying each croissant to keep croissants from sticking to air fryer basket.
  • All air fryers cook differently. Watch carefully to make sure croissant french toast is cooked to your liking.
  • These croissants were served with almond whipped cream, blueberries, raspberries, sliced almonds, and a drizzle of maple syrup.
