let's make snack with air-fyer
Ingredients:
- For the Bread Pudding:
- 4 cups cubed day-old bread (French or Italian bread works well)
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup raisins or other dried fruit (optional)
- For Serving (Optional):
- Whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce
Instructions:
- Preheat Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C).
- Prepare the Bread:
- Place the cubed bread in a large bowl. If using raisins or other dried fruit, mix them in.
- Make the Custard Mixture:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
- Combine and Soak:
- Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes, gently tossing to coat. Let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the custard.
- Prepare the Air Fryer Basket:
- Lightly grease the air fryer basket or line it with parchment paper.
- Cook:
- Transfer the soaked bread mixture into the air fryer basket, spreading it out evenly.
- Cook at 320°F (160°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Serve:
- Allow the bread pudding to cool slightly before serving.
- Serve warm with optional whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce.
