Preheat your air fryer to 350°F/175°C if your model calls for it. While that’s heating, slice the bread into sticks and set them aside.

In a bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla, and a pinch of salt until smooth. In a separate shallow bowl, stir together the cinnamon and sugar.

Lightly grease the air fryer basket with butter or cooking spray. Dip each breadstick into the egg mixture, letting the excess drip off.

Arrange the sticks in the basket in a single layer. Air fry at 350°F/175°C for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they’re golden and crisp on the outside.

As soon as they come out, sprinkle them with the cinnamon sugar so it sticks to the warm toast. Serve with maple syrup or your favorite dip—and enjoy!
