Air Fryer Hong Kong Style French Toast
This is my guilt-free Airfryer Hong Kong Style French Toast recipe, where the nostalgic flavours of kaya jam, bread, and eggs, meet the magic of airfrying for a crispy and healthier twist.
Equipment
- 1 Air Fryer
- 1 parchment liner optional
- 1 shallow dish
Ingredients
- 4 slices square white toast (best from Asian supermarkets)
- 2 eggs
- 2-3 tbsp kaya jam
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp sugar white or cane
- 2 pieces butter ideally square pieces for the cafe vibe!
Instructions
- If your bread has crust, cut it off on all sides and save it for later. Spread 1 -2 tbsp of kaya jam on one side of 2 pieces of bread. Top the kaya bread slice with a plain slice of white bread and press down firmly so the bread sticks together.
- Crack eggs into a large bowl and whisk until combined. Put sandwich into the egg mixture and make sure to coat the entire surface include the sides.
- Either line your airfryer with parchment paper or spray it with oil, and add both french toasts into the airfryer. Cook for 7 mins (200 Celsius) and then flip over and cook for another 4 minutes or until golden brown.
- If you have leftover crust and whisked eggs, mix cinnamon and sugar to your eggs and dip the crusts in it. Fry it on a frying pan with a bit of oil and enjoy on it's own or dipped in maple syrup as Cinnamon Toast French Toast Sticks 😉
- Serve HK Style French Toast with a little piece of squared butter and top with condensed milk or pure maple syrup. Enjoy!
