What Are French Toast Bites?

French toast bites are simply small, cubed pieces of French toast that are easy to eat and even easier to share. Instead of full slices, you cut the bread into bite-sized cubes, coat them in a sweet, spiced mixture, and air fry them to perfection. 

They’re crisp on the outside, soft inside, and coated with cinnamon sugar, making them perfect for dipping into maple syrup, chocolate sauce, or even fruit compote. 

These air fryer bites are not only quick to make but also kid-friendly, travel-friendly, and absolutely irresistible!

How to Make French Toast Bites in an Air Fryer  

Step 1: Prepare the Bread Cubes 

Cut the bread into bite-sized cubes, roughly 1 to 1.5 inches each. Slightly stale bread works better as it absorbs the custard mixture without becoming soggy. 

Step 2: Prepare the Custard Mixture 

In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla essence, cinnamon, sugar, and salt until smooth. Those preferring eggless, use mashed banana or custard powder mixed in milk.  

Step 3: Coat the Bread Cubes 

Add the bread cubes to the bowl and gently toss them until all pieces are coated evenly. Let them sit for 2–3 minutes so they can soak up the mixture without disintegrating. 

Step 4: Preheat the Air Fryer 

Preheat your Air Fryer to 180°C for 3–4 minutes. Its rapid air circulation technology ensures even heating and crispy results without needing to flip the bites multiple times. 

Step 5: Arrange and Air Fry 

Thanks to the Wipro Elato’s transparent viewing window, you can easily monitor your food as it cooks, ensuring every piece turns perfectly golden. 

Step 6: Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Coating 

While the bites are cooking, mix cinnamon and sugar in a bowl. Once the French toast bites are done, toss them in this coating while they’re still warm. This adds a sweet crunch and enhances the aroma. 

Step 7: Serve and enjoy! 

Serve hot with: 

Enjoy these French toast bites as a quick breakfast, lunchbox snack, or even a guilt-free dessert!
