Equipment

Storage & Reheating

Leftover air fryer frozen Texas toast can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the toast in a single layer in an air fryer basket and cook at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 2-3 minutes, or until heated through.

Tips for Success

Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. If you add too many slices of toast to the basket, they will not cook evenly.
Turn the Texas toast slices in the air fryer basket halfway through cooking if they don't appear to be toasting evenly on both sides. This will help the toast cook evenly.
Season the toast to your liking. You can add cinnamon sugar, cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, or any other seasoning you like.
