“Breakfast in 10 minutes? Yes please! Deliciously thick, chunky and very satisfying French Toast slices made using a cinnamon version of my soft microwave bread. The macros are calculated per slice and I have excluded any toppings. You will need to invest in an inexpensive, square microwave-friendly Tupperware. Mine was approx. 11 x 11cm / 4.3 x 4.3-in, but its important that it’s deep as the mixture rises and you don’t want it to cook over. I also discovered an amazing sugar-free syrup, which tastes and behaves exactly like the real thing! I have not included them in the macros below, but I encourage you to check it out. It’s called Sukrin Golden Syrup, High Fiber Sugar Alternative and I will be playing around with it a lot more in the future.” – Monya

More on Keto French Toast…
French toast is a beloved breakfast classic, but what if I told you that you could enjoy this comfort food while staying true to your keto diet? This delicious twist on the traditional recipe uses slices of bread made from almond flour, psyllium husk powder, and cinnamon.

Almond flour and psyllium husk powder form the foundation of the bread. Almond flour provides a nutty flavour and a rich source of healthy fats and proteins, while psyllium husk powder adds a unique, sponge-like texture and a dose of dietary fibre to aid digestion.
Cinnamon, the spice of warmth and comfort, is essential to this recipe. It’s not only a flavour enhancer but also contributes antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. When combined with eggs and erythritol, the result is a thick, fragrant batter that coats your keto bread slices.
So, the next time you crave a comforting breakfast, whip up a batch of this keto French toast, and treat yourself to a guilt-free indulgence that’s both delicious and nutritious.
It is important to note that to maintain ketosis, it’s essential to track carbohydrate intake and ensure it aligns with your daily macro goals. Consulting with a healthcare professional is advised before making significant dietary changes.

Cinnamon French Toast
Per serving
Ingredients
For the French Toast bread slices
- 2 eggs
- 2 TB light olive oil
- 4 TB almond flour
- 2 TB extra-fine almond flour
- 1 tsp psyllium husk powder
- 1 TB powdered erythritol, confectioners
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon, (optional)
To finish the French Toast
- 2 eggs
- 20 g (0.7 oz) double cream
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon, (optional)
- 2 TB light olive oil, or butter
- generous drizzle of low-sugar syrup (Sukrin), (optional)
Instructions
- Whisk the eggs and olive oil in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining dry ingredients, ensuring the mixture has thoroughly combined. Grease a small, square microwave-friendly Tupperware – similar square dimensions to a slice of bread, approx. 11 x 11cm / 4.3 x 4.3-in. (Amazon link at the end of the recipe).
- Add the whisked egg mixture to the dry mix and combine very well. Pour the mixture into the prepared Tupperware.
- Place into the microwave on high for 1 minute 45 seconds, then remove. Turn the Tupperware out upside down and give it a little knock – it will tip out as a solid mass. If it doesn't, slide a knife around the edges. Once cool enough to handle, turn it on its side and slice into 3 thick slices.
- To finish the French toast, whisk the eggs well and add in the double cream and cinnamon, whisking well to combine.
- Heat a little light olive oil - or butter - (working in batches, one slice at a time) in a non-stick pan. Submerge the slices of bread into the egg mixture and allow to soak for a few seconds. Remove and allow the excess to drip off.
- Fry the egg-soaked bread over a moderate heat, pressing the bread down with an egg-lifter to ensure the egg has cooked sufficiently, flipping until browned on both sides. Remove and set aside, repeating the process until all three slices are done.
- The SUKRIN sugar alternative syrup has not been included in macros as I assume many readers prefer a savoury French Toast (like me!). If you choose to enjoy this French Toast savoury, simply omit the cinnamon and enjoy it with some reduced-sugar ketchup instead. (I feature a homemade tomato sauce on this site too. Check it out by using the SEARCH facility and typing Fresh Tomato Ketchup)
