1 large egg
3 tablespoons Greek yogurt (any variety or fat percentage works)
2 to 3 teaspoons sweetener, such as maple syrup, honey, or agave
1 splash pure vanilla extract
2 slices good quality sandwich bread, preferably brioche or challah
1/4 cup berries of choice
2 tablespoons chocolate chips, optional
Confectioners' sugar, optional
Steps to Make It
-
Gather the ingredients.
-
Whisk together the egg, yogurt, sweetener, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. You want to really mix these ingredients together well using a fork or a small whisk. Keep whisking until the mixture is completely smooth and begins to look glossy, making sure there are no lumps.
-
Take one slice of your bread and press down the center. Leave a border of crust, but press down most of the soft part of the bread to form a well.
-
Pour half of the yogurt mixture onto the bread, spreading into an even layer. The amount will vary based on the size, thickness, and type of bread you use.
-
Scatter half the berries or chocolate chips over the top. Get creative and make it fun with a design of your choice. Repeat with the second slice of bread.
-
Air fry (with one slice on each of two levels), at 350 F for 7 minutes (if your air fryer is standard single layer, air fry one slice at a time for 7 minutes).
Check on the bread as it is cooking. You are looking for a glossy sheen and caramelized edges of the yogurt filling and golden brown toasted bread. Alternatively, you can bake both slices in a preheated 350 F oven for 12 to 15 minutes.
-
Allow the toast to cool for a minute or two, then dust with confectioners' sugar, if desired. Slice and serve immediately.
Recipe Tips
- Preheating the air fryer didn’t prove to make a huge difference in the cooking time or process. Preheat or don’t preheat and you will get very similar results.
- If you want a firmer texture to the custard, use a thinner layer of filling. Too thick of a layer and the bread will brown before the custard is cooked through.
