Storage

Store any leftover yogurt custard toast in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. Reheat gently in the air fryer at a low temperature or in the oven to maintain crispness. Fresh toppings are best added just before serving.

FAQs

Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?

Greek yogurt works best for its thick texture and creaminess, but you can use regular yogurt if strained well to remove excess liquid.

What if I don’t have an air fryer?

The recipe includes oven instructions and works just as well baked in a preheated oven at 400°F for 10-15 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale

Custard Mixture

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons honey (or substitute with 2 tablespoons maple syrup)
  • 1 large egg

Fruit Toppings

  • ¼ cup blueberries
  • 2 strawberries (cut in half and thinly sliced)

Base

  • 4 slices brioche bread slices

Finishing Touch

  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 380°F (193°C) and allow it to preheat while you prepare the custard toast.
  2. Make the yogurt custard: In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and egg until smooth and fully combined to create the custard base.
  3. Prepare the brioche slices: Using the back of a spoon, gently press the center of each brioche slice to create a shallow well for holding the custard mixture without spilling over.
  4. Assemble the custard toast: Spoon the yogurt custard evenly into the wells of each brioche slice, filling them generously but without overflow.
  5. Add the fruit toppings: Distribute the sliced strawberries and blueberries evenly over the custard on each toast. You may substitute or add your favorite berries if desired.
  6. Air fry the custard toast: Place the prepared toasts into the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 380°F for 10 minutes, until the custard is set and the brioche edges become lightly golden and crisp.
  7. Finish and serve: Carefully remove the toasts from the air fryer, then sprinkle them with powdered sugar or drizzle with additional honey or maple syrup. Serve immediately with extra fresh fruit on the side if preferred.

Notes

  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup to make it vegan-friendly if using egg alternatives.
  • Pressing a well in the brioche helps contain the custard and prevents spillover during cooking.
  • Feel free to customize the fruit toppings based on seasonal availability or personal preference.
  • For a crispier texture, you can extend air frying time by 2-3 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
  • This recipe can also be baked in an oven at 400°F for 10-15 minutes if you don’t have an air fryer.
