- 2 slices gluten-free whole grain, or sprouted grain bread find something that is hearty and not too soft
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoon unsweetened vanilla almond milk or whatever milk you have
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup plus more for dipping
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon or more my daughter likes a lot
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Cooking oil spray I used coconut oil spray
- Parchment paper - this is a must!!
Air Fryer
Line bottom of air fryer basket with parchment paper - this is super important, as it prevents sticking.
Next, slice your bread into 4 equal sticks. Mix egg, milk, maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon together. Dip bread into egg mixture and coat well, but shake off the excess egg.
Place sticks on parchment and spray with cooking oil spray. Don’t overcrowd them - you may need to do two batches if your Air Fryer is really small.
Set to 360 and cook for ten minutes, flipping halfway and removing the parchment paper for the second half of cooking. You may need a little more or a little less time depending on your desired crispiness. We liked ours very crispy!
Oven
Preheat oven to 350.
Next, slice your bread into 4 equal sticks. Mix egg, milk, maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon together. Dip bread into egg mixture and coat well, but shake off the excess egg.
Place sticks on baking sheet lined with parchment and spray with cooking oil spray. Bake for 16-18 minutes, flipping halfway through.
