These keto French toast sticks take our easy keto French toast recipe and turn it into a delicious, lightly-fried, cinnamon-coated breakfast treat. Only 6g net carbs in 4 French toast sticks!
What Makes This Recipe So Good
- It’s super easy and comes together so quickly. From pantry to plate in less than 15 minutes, it’s perfect for busy mornings!
- You can have it for breakfast or dessert! For a more dessert-like treat, pair these keto French toast sticks with Keto Whipped Cream and low carb fruit.
- It’s just as delicious as traditional French toast without all the carbs and sugar.
Key Ingredient
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 Them
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.
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.
