Can you toast bread in an air fryer? Yes you can and it is really easy to make it. The toast is ready to eat quickly and with minimal effort. Great for a quick snack or for making breakfast.
Air Fryer Toast
Sometimes you might need to toast some bread and you don’t have a toaster. Well don’t fear as it is actually really easy to toast bread with an air fryer. Not only is it easy to toast the bread but it also toasts quite evenly.
It is quicker to cook the bread in air fryer compared to an oven, however you normally cannot fit as many pieces of bread in an air fryer compared to an oven.
What Bread To Use For Toast
I have made toast with a variety of different types of breads in the air fryer. All of them have turned out quite nicely. So any bread should work well in the air fryer.
As a general rule though, types of bread which are less dense will toast more evenly. Denser breads tend to toast more around the edges compared to the center of the bread.
How To Toast Bread In An Air Fryer
To toast bread in an air fryer, you are first going to need to preheat the air fryer to 350°F/180°C
Place pieces of bread in a single layer in the air fryer. Cook the pieces of bread for 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook for a further 3-4 minutes, until you reach your desired level of toasted. The exact time will depend on how toasted you like your bread and the model of air fryer.
If you are using frozen bread then just allow for an extra 1-2 minutes before turning the bread the first time.
Once the bread is toasted as desired, just spread your spreading of choice or any other toppings (such as some nice cold meats) and enjoy. Toast can be served cold or warm so enjoy it however you like.
