Cinnamon Toast
vegetarianbreakfastsnackdessertKid-FriendlyMeal-Prep
Air fryer cinnamon toast is quick, easy, and better than the oven or toaster. The air fryer toasts the bread perfectly while the cinnamon sugar melts into every nook and cranny. You'll find the full recipe, including tips for getting the perfect butter-to-sugar ratio, on this page.
Ingredients
- 4 slices thick-cut bread (Texas toast or white sandwich bread)
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch salt
Steps
- 01Mix the sugar, cinnamon, and salt together in a small bowl.
- 02Spread softened butter on one side of each bread slice. All the way to the edges.
- 03Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar generously over the butter. Press it in gently with your fingers.
- 04Ready for the air fryer, sugar-side up.
The butter has to go on first, then the sugar. Butter is the glue. If you sprinkle cinnamon sugar on dry bread, the air fryer's fan blows it right off and you get plain toast with burnt sugar on the bottom of your basket. Butter first, sugar pressed into the butter, every time.
