What Is French Toast?

French toast, also known as eggy bread, Bombay toast, or poor knights, is a classic breakfast dish made by soaking slices of bread in a mixture of eggs, milk, and often sugar or spices, then pan-frying until golden brown and slightly crisp on the outside.

Traditionally, it’s served with a variety of toppings like maple syrup, butter, fresh fruit, or whipped cream, and is loved around the world for its rich flavor and satisfying, custard-like texture.

This keto version delivers the same comfort and taste—but with fewer carbs and more wholesome ingredients to fit your low-carb lifestyle.

Is French Toast Keto-Friendly?

Traditional French toast is usually made with high-carb ingredients like white bread, whole milk, and sugar—making it not suitable for a keto diet. But the good news is, you don’t have to give it up!

With a few simple swaps, you can make a keto-friendly French toast that’s just as comforting and flavorful—without the carbs.

💡 Tips for Making Low-Carb French Toast:

• Use low-carb bread – Try almond flour bread, coconut flour bread, or any keto bread you enjoy.
• Replace milk – Use unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk instead of whole milk.
• Skip the sugar – Use low-carb sweeteners like erythritol, monk fruit, or stevia.
• Add flavor – A little cinnamon, nutmeg, or vanilla extract adds warmth and depth.
• Cook it right – Fry in a non-stick pan with a bit of butter or coconut oil for golden, crispy edges.

With these tweaks, you can enjoy a warm, sweet, and satisfying low-carb breakfast that fits your macros and tastes just like the real thing.
