Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp salted butter (divided)
- 1 dinner-sized roll, cubed (or equivalent amount of bread)
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup evaporated milk
- 2 Tbsp sugar (divided)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- Cinnamon sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Prep Ramekins: Place one tablespoon of butter in a ramekin. Add your cubed bread pieces on top.
- Whisk Custard: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, evaporated milk, one tablespoon of sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Soak: Pour the egg mixture over the bread in the ramekin. Let it sit for 20 minutes so the bread can fully absorb the custard.
- Top: Sprinkle the remaining tablespoon of sugar over the top and add the remaining tablespoon of butter.
- Air Fry: Place the ramekins in the air fryer. Bake at 300°F for 20 minutes.
- Test for Doneness: Insert a fork into the center. If you see runny milk or egg, cook for an additional 4 minutes at 280°F.
- Serve: Once finished, dust with cinnamon sugar while still warm.
Notes
Conventional Oven Method:
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 30 minutes or until set.
