    Ingredients

    bread in air fryer basket

    Bread: Any bread of choice such as white bread, wheat bread, sourdough bread or brioche bread.

    Air Fryer Safe Cooking Spray or Butter: You can use air fryer safe cooking spray or oil the grates on your air fryer. You can also pre-butter both sides of each bread slice.

    How to make toast in air fryer

    toast bread in air fryer basket
    1. Preheat air fryer to 400°
    2. Lightly spray air fryer basket with cooking spray. Spray top of bread to avoid bread burning. Alternatively, you can pre-butter each slice of bread.
    3. Place bread slices in fryer basket. Do not overfill basket. Bread should not overlap.
    4. Cook for approximately 2-4 minutes on 400°
    5. Enjoy your toast plain, with butter, jam, nut butter or toppings of your choice.
    6. If this is your first time making toast in your air fryer, try lowest cook time as the thickness of the bread and air fryers cook times can vary.
    7. Depending on your air fryer, the size of your fryer basket and amount of bread slices in the basket, you can cook for an additional 1 minutes until you reach your desired level of crispness for your toast in air fryer.

    Pre-heating air fryer

    I recommend pre-heating air fryer. However, if you choose not to pre-heat, add about 3-4 minutes to your cook time.

    Check for crispiness at the end of your cook time and add additional cook time as needed until your toast reaches desired level of crispiness.

    Ninja Foodi, Ninja Air Fryer, Ninja Foodi Grill, Instant Vortex, Emeril Air Fryer

    This recipe works for most all brands of air fryers. Start with the lower cook time the first time you make your toast in air fryer.

    Air fryer toast bread temperature

    While you can make air fryer toast at a number of different temperatures, we have found that the perfect air fryer toast bread temperature is 400 degrees.
