Prep: 15 Minutes | Cook Time: 8 Minutes | Makes: 2 Servings
Ingredients:
- 5 thick slices of Texas toast (or other sturdy bread)
- 3 organic eggs, lightly beaten
- ½ cup almond milk (or your preferred milk)
- 2 drops vanilla extract
- A few pinches of cinnamon powder
- 2 pinches of ground cardamom powder (optional, for a warm spice)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer: Set it to 400°F (204°C) for 3 minutes. This ensures your breadsticks cook evenly and get that perfect crispiness.
- Slice the bread: Cut each slice of Texas toast into thirds, creating long “breadsticks.”
- Prepare the egg wash: In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and cardamom powder. Whisk together until well blended.
- Add the eggs: In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the eggs. Then, add them to the milk mixture and whisk everything together until smooth.
- Dip the breadsticks: Dip each breadstick into the egg wash, ensuring it’s fully coated.
- Air fry in batches: Arrange the coated breadsticks in a single layer in your air fryer basket (lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup). Don’t overcrowd the basket – work in batches if needed.
- Cook to golden perfection: Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 8 minutes. Flip the breadsticks halfway through (after 4 minutes) for even browning.
- Serve and enjoy! These air fryer breadsticks are delicious on their own or with your favorite dipping sauces like maple syrup, honey, or jam.
Tips & Variations:
- Sweet or Savory: Add a pinch of sugar to the egg wash for a sweeter treat. For a savory version, try adding garlic powder, onion powder, or Italian seasoning.
- Dipping Sauces: Get creative with your dips! Chocolate sauce, whipped cream, or even a fruit compote would be delicious.
- Make it a Meal: Serve these breadsticks alongside scrambled eggs, bacon, or fruit for a complete and satisfying breakfast.
