Keto French Toast Sticks Ingredients
Coconut Flour – This high-protein, low-carb, gluten-free flour alternative is perfect for keto dieters. The high-fiber content helps replace some of the fiber lost in cutting carbohydrates, and it also helps keep you full. Because it absorbs a lot of liquid, it doesn’t behave quite like almond flour or all-purpose flour.
How to Make Keto French Toast Sticks
The full recipe & ingredients list are below, but here you’ll find a quick overview for making this recipe perfectly, along with useful tips and info!
The keto bread for this recipe is the same 90-second keto bread from our delicious Keto French Toast – and it’s literally as easy as “mix” and “microwave”!
Mix everything together in a square microwave-safe dish and nuke it for 90 seconds. Once the bread cools, cut it into 4 strips and coat it in the cinnamon egg wash. Be sure to coat both sides evenly!
Lightly fry the toast sticks in melted butter until they’re golden brown on both sides. If you want, you can remove them from the pan and coat them in a cinnamon-erythritol blend. Otherwise, go straight from pan to plate and serve with fruit or keto-friendly maple syrup! I really like Lakanto Maple-Flavored Syrup and Walden Farms Pancake Syrup.
Chef’s Tips
- Use a 4×6 or 5×7 dish for the bread. Anything larger will make it too thin!
- You can use the same dish for your egg wash. The keto French toast sticks won’t bend quite as well as traditional bread, so a too-small bowl will make dipping the sticks difficult.
- Fry the French toast sticks over medium heat to ensure they cook evenly. If you notice the bread is browning on the edges and not in the center, gently press on the sticks with a spatula while they’re frying.
What Do We Mean By “Healthy?”
Our recipes focus on real ingredients and homemade elements. We try to avoid processed flour and sugar, like white flour or white sugar. Our recipes often swap less healthy options (like a commercial, deep-fried tostada) for an easy homemade version.
Our recipes are not necessarily low fat or low calorie, and we aren’t afraid of fat or carbs! Some of our recipes will be “skinny,” low carb, keto, paleo, dairy free, grain free, gluten free, Whole30, or vegan, and they will be labeled when they qualify for any of these diets. All our recipes are easy and family friendly!
