Check out this vanilla french toast recipe!
Did someone say french toast?! More specifically, did someone say low-carb French toast?! Sign me up, please! French toast is a staple breakfast food that always makes the morning a little bit better. Of course, typical recipes for this deliciousness are usually loaded with carbs. Fortunately, we know how to dodge a carb or two and still get that delicious french toast for breakfast that you may be craving.
This recipe has everything you could possibly want in a tasty french toast recipe. However, you'll notice the carb count is ultra-low. The secret? Almond flour! Almond flour has fewer carbs than traditional white flour, but it still gives you that bread-like texture that you know and love.
To make this keto french toast, you will first make the bread that uses almond flour as the main ingredient. In addition to being low carb, the bread is also totally gluten-free- it's great for everyone! Almond flour, baking powder, eggs, and coconut oil are all you need to make the bread. The batter bakes in the oven for about 30 minutes to make the bread loaf. If you plan on eating this low carb french toast first thing in the morning, you can definitely make the bread the night before, giving yourself a jump start to the recipe when you are super hungry in the morning. The bread will keep for 3-4 days in the fridge so plan ahead and bake it in advance! It will still taste great!
Speaking of delicious flavor, it all comes together in this yummy little breakfast recipe. Nutmeg, cinnamon, and a touch of vanilla create the most delicious blend of flavors. Seriously, cooking up a batch of these is going to have your entire house smelling like a bakery! Warm, inviting, delicious–can life get any better?
Not only is this recipe low carb, but it's also sugar-free! That's right, simply top it with sugar-free maple syrup, and you have a sweet dish without the sugar! Keto foodies and people who are watching their sugar intake will certainly appreciate this! If you do not have any sugar free maple syrup on hand, use a low-carb fruit as a topping. A few fresh sliced strawberries, blueberries or a raspberry or two make for a great low carb addition. Berries are also great with the vanilla flavor- a perfect compliment to our amazing recipe!
To make our keto vanilla french toast, all you need is a few minutes in the kitchen and a handful of ingredients to make this dish at home.
