This recipe for keto french toast starts by making an egg loaf. Egg loaf is a low carb version of a quick bread with hints of cinnamon and vanilla. Since this low carb bread is made up of primarily eggs it makes the ideal keto toast for making this sweet breakfast classic. Since you make a loaf of keto bread first, this recipe is ideal for meal prep!
Cut out thick slices from a baked egg loaf and fry the keto bread slice in butter in a skillet. This creates a crisp, golden brown crust on the sides of the bread. The result is french toast that’s only 2.8 grams net carbs per slice! Now all you need is to pour on the sugar free maple syrup and maybe add a dollop of whipped cream. It’s an iconic low carb breakfast that will surely make your morning brighter and your family happy. Although I can’t guarantee they will stay that way!
Another fun option for the kids is to make French toast sticks. Cut into thinner slices and dip in syrup. The kids will take joy in playing with their food with not having to use a fork. These keto french toast sticks make a fun on-the-go breakfast too. Just bring the wet wipes if the sticky syrup gets on your fingers!
What makes this French Toast keto?
- Low carb ingredients – Instead of using traditional slices of bread or texas toast, this keto french toast recipe starts with making simple quick bread using keto ingredients like coconut flour, cream cheese, egg and butter. After it’s baked, the keto bread is sliced and fried in a buttered skillet similar to traditional french toast.
- Gluten free – Many people on a keto diet are trying to avoid gluten. So using store bought sliced keto bread is usually not an option if you are gluten-free. This recipe is gluten free since no wheat flours are used.
- Less than 3 carbs – Each keto french toast slice is only 2.8 grams net carbs.

Fry french toast
To make keto french toast, heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Add 1-2 tablespoons of butter. Fry each slice in the pan or griddle until crisp and browned on each side.
Have this in the oven and was reviewing my steps because my batter was way more runny than yours (I blended ingredients in a blender). I noticed in the video you stated 1/4 cup coconut flour, but the written instructions state 1/3 cup of coconut flour, which is what I used. Even then, batter consistency was different. I am hoping this still turns out well. Please advise if it is 1/3 or 1/4 cup of flour.
I have done both for this recipe. The batter will thicken as the coconut flour absorbs some of the liquid.
OMG!! This was the bomb! My hubby and I just started Keto 1/23 and are having a difficult time getting used to the new way of eating and cooking. I found you on YouTube and fell in love with your information. I will continue to try your recipes.
