Ingredients

• 1 large egg
• 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt (any variety or fat percentage)
• 2 to 3 teaspoons sweetener (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, for dusting)

Steps to Make It

1. Gather the ingredients.

2. Prepare the custard mixture:

   • Whisk together the egg, Greek yogurt, sweetener, and vanilla extract in a small bowl.
   • Mix until the ingredients are completely smooth and glossy, ensuring there are no lumps.

3. Prepare the bread:

   • Take one slice of bread and press down the center to form a well, leaving a border of crust.
   • Pour half of the yogurt mixture into the well, spreading it into an even layer.
   • Scatter half the berries or chocolate chips over the top. Repeat with the second slice of bread.

4. Cook the toast:

   • Air Fryer Method:
     • Place one slice on each of two levels (or cook one slice at a time if your air fryer is single layer).
     • Air fry at 350 F for 7 minutes.
   • Oven Method:
     • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
     • Bake both slices for 12 to 15 minutes.

5. Finish and serve:

   • Allow the toast to cool for a minute or two.
   • Dust with confectioners' sugar, if desired.
   • Slice and serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

• Preheating the air fryer: It does not significantly affect the cooking time or process, so you can choose to preheat or not.
• Custard texture: For a firmer custard, use a thinner layer of filling. A thicker layer might result in the bread browning before the custard is fully cooked.
