Step-by-step
- 1
Prep Bread for the Air Fryer
Preheat your air fryer to 350°F. Spread any toppings like garlic butter, herbs, or seasonings evenly over your bread. Arrange slices in a single layer in the basket with no overlapping and space between each piece for hot air to circulate.

Air Fry Bread to Golden Brown
Preheat air fryer to 350°F. Place bread basket inside and set timer for 2 to 3 minutes. Check at 2 minutes by inspecting the surface. Basket-style users can shake halfway for even browning. Oven-style air fryers may need 5 to 7 minutes total and a slightly higher temperature. Watch the surface color as your doneness cue since models vary.

Finish and Serve Your Air-Fried Bread
Remove bread when the top is golden brown and edges show light browning. Serve warm immediately for best texture and flavor. Bread will crisp slightly more as it cools. Keep finished batches warm on a plate without stacking, as trapped steam softens the crust. Garlic bread is best eaten within a few minutes of coming out of the air fryer.
