- Prepare the French Toast Mixture:
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg (if using), and salt until well combined.
- Dip the Bread Slices:
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated evenly. Allow any excess mixture to drip off.

- Air fry at 180°C (360°F) for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the French toast slices are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Serve:
- Remove the French toast from the air fryer and serve immediately.
- Drizzle with maple syrup and dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
- Enjoy:
- Enjoy your crispy and fluffy air fryer French toast while it’s still warm!
