Keto French Toast Sticks Recipe

Keto French Toast Sticks Recipe Macro Wide

If you are looking for a simple alternative to the same old scrambled eggs and bacon for your Keto Breakfast, consider these easy to make Keto French Toast Sticks. These protein-packed french toast sticks will fill you up, and they are yummy enough for the whole family to enjoy. Our kids don’t even realize that they are eating keto about 3/4 of the time! We like to keep it interesting around here in our house, and you can too.

The recipe starts off by making a loaf of simple microwave bread. If you have never made the microwave bread before, you are missing out, because it is very versatile and can be made into a variety of accommodating shapes, depending on what containers you have available to microwave it safely in. We prefer to make this recipe in a rectangular Pyrex dish because the loaf comes out in easy to cut sizes.

We then serve ours with a little Salted Butter on top and go to town, and our kids get theirs with pure maple syrup (since they aren’t strictly eating keto along with us). You could also use some sugar-free maple/pancake syrups if you wish but just be sure to choose one that is actually keto-friendly and not just one for diabetics.

Will this become a weekend staple in your household? Make some and let us know how yours turn out in the comments at the bottom of the page.

  1. Is the microbrea$ okay to freeze

    1. The bread? Yeah, after you cook it feel free to freeze it. We always make that part fresh though since it takes only a few minutes to make it.

      1. Is there a particular bread to use?

        1. In the recipe and instructions you make the bread that is used. 🙂

          1. So many eggs ,

          2. Eggs are the basis of most Keto breads, and they are very nutritional too. Great choice for Keto. I made these again this morning for my kids and they gobble them up no complaints. Though these fill you up a lot faster than you would think with all that egg and almond flour. I ate 4 and am still full about 7 hours later.

  2. Where can I find the nutritional info, specifically net carbs?

    1. Added! And they’re virtually non-existent. This recipe is almost all egg and almond flour!

  3. Do you have the nutritional information?

  4. What is the nutritional breakdown on these???

  5. Microwaveing Kills all the Enzymes, not to mention
    all your Vitamins & nutrients in your Food.
    We need Enzymes. They are very important.
    I Never Microwave Anything. But I Love this Recipe,
    But I want to use a regular oven. Just wished you had
    time & temperature for those that don’t want to use
    the Microwave & want to use their regular oven
    instead.

    1. Sherry, microwaving the eggs is part of what gives the bread it’s light and airy texture. But you can let us know how they turn out baked too!

      1. actually if you separate the whites and yolks you can achieve the fluffy eggs that way too by whipping the whites and folding the whites in last after mixing the rest of the ingredients for the bread together

      2. I just did the recipe and baked it in the oven. They still came out light and airy. The only thing I would do differently next time is add more cinnamon for my personal liking.

        1. Thank you! I don’t ever use a microwave either and wish there was proper baking information. What time and temp did you use? Might try to bake them in a water bath like creme brûlée and see how they turn out…

        2. Hi, can you share temp and amount of time in oven?

        3. How long did you leave it in the oven and at what temperature? Thank you 😊

    2. Sherry, did you try it in the oven? I don’t like to use a microwave either. I’m trying to keep my nutrient content high. It does sound wonderful! Though I’d like to try it in the oven as well.

    3. YES IT CAN BE MADE IN AN OVEN. i don’t own a microwave and made this bread recipe in the oven at 375° for 15 minutes in a 7×10 inch glass pyrex baking dish that I sprayed with non stick cooking spray. It turned out perfect but since it wasn’t being baked in a bread pan but bigger area surface pan, I added an extra 1/2 tsp of baking powder to the batter. I also used my electric mix master to do the mixing and started at low speed and increased that as well. . I first set the timer for 10 minutes to see if that would be enough baking time. It wasn’t so I added baking time in 1 minute increments until I felt the center for doneness with my finger. In my oven it was 15 minutes but I probably could have taken it out at the 14 minute mark. Every microwaveable recipe is doable in the oven ,

    4. Bake at 350 for 15min. It turned out great!

    5. Sherry, thank you for posting what I wanted to post about microwaves!

    6. Sherry – You read my mind as I am looking at this delicious recipe. I was just thinking about how smart people are about food, yet they do not realize the destruction of it of EVERYTHING good and the whole purpose of food!!! I am amazed. I haven’t used a mikey in over 20 years.
      I do wish people with delicious recipes would understand this and bake in the oven. It’s for their own good, so food will do it’s intended purpose for the body. People really need to do their own research.
      I do appreciate all those who put out all of these recipe websites, indeed! Thanks!

  6. What can you use instead of maple flavouring

    1. You don’t even have to flavor them if you don’t want. Or you can use vanilla and ground cinnamon in the bread too if you like those flavorings instead. 🙂

      1. Almond extract is good too.

  7. I just made these using the microwave, I replace the maple flavoring with vanilla and I added whipped cream on top and I added a little bit of monk fruit in the Raw zero calorie calorie sweetener to my whipping cream is a little grainy which I think all almond flour is but it is good a great alternative to the eggs and bacon every morning.

  8. no microwave — how long would I bake theses??

    1. YES IT CAN BE MADE IN AN OVEN. i don’t own a microwave and made this bread recipe in the oven at 375° for 15 minutes in a 7×10 inch glass pyrex baking dish that I sprayed with non stick cooking spray. It turned out perfect but since it wasn’t being baked in a bread pan but bigger area surface pan, I added an extra 1/2 tsp of baking powder to the batter. I also used my electric mix master to do the mixing and started at low speed and increased that as well. . I first set the timer for 10 minutes to see if that would be enough baking time. It wasn’t so I added baking time in 1 minute increments until I felt the center for doneness with my finger. In my oven it was 15 minutes but I probably could have taken it out at the 14 minute mark. Every microwaveable recipe is doable in the oven ,

  9. I am allergic to nuts what can be substituted for the almond flour ?

    1. Some people have used Coconut Flour instead and they turn our yummy too. Just keep in mind that coconut flour absorbs more moisture than almond flour, and you use less coconut flour as substitution when swapping them. Be mindful of that or else they may turn out really hard.

    2. Actually, you can use sunflower seed flour to replace almond flour (@ 1:1 ratio) for most things. Just buy some unsalted partially defatted sunflower seeds (not roasted), put in a seed grinder, and then run through sifter (to get out chunks). It usually puffs up a bit more too, making for lighter cakes and breads.

      It’ll cost you one net carb per 1/4 cup (about 28 grams), but the price is also a lot cheaper. Sunflower seed is something like $2 a pound instead of $6 or $7 a pound for blanch almonds.

  10. I don’t cook anything in the microwave, we do t even own one. What conversion can you offer for the bread portion of the recipe?

    1. 375° For 13-15 minutes depending on your oven. I made mine in a 7×10 glass pyrex dish and they turned out perfect

  11. How many does this recipe serve?

    1. 3-4 people. In our house it serves 2 adults and 2 kids, otherwise 3 adults. Three of these French Toast Sticks are way more filling than they look. 🙂

  12. what are the baking {non microwave} instructions for the “bread”?

  13. What is Keto? I’ve seen different ones saying they are following the Keto diet but what is it? Where did it originate and what type of medical proof do you have that it is a healthy diet to follow ? Just curious. Thank you, Anna

    1. A diet that is very high in Fat and Protein, and extremely Low in Sugar (Not all Carbohydrates are bad, because Dietary Fiber is good). The process of eating this way requires a strict adherence to it for the most part although I will say some of our recipes are just downright delicious and you wouldn’t need to be eating a Keto diet to enjoy them at all. Nothing here tastes like Rice Cakes and Tab Cola.

      We will get some more general information up on the site in the near future, though we are not doctors. We were personally prescribed this diet as a way of life by our own doctor to improve our health, and along our journey we took our love of food and cooking and decided to provide our daily lifestyle as a resource and inspiration for others who are looking for variety too. 🙂

  14. Noreen Fullerton

    These look and sound so yummy, I have to try them. We ditched our microwave a couple years ago. Can you tell me how to accomplish step 5 without a microwave? Thank you.

    1. Bake at 350 for 15min

    2. You could try an air fryer if you don’t want to use a microwave. I do it all the time when I don’t want to heat up my oven (and the kitchen!)

  15. thank you for these delicious recipes!

    1. You’re welcome Theresa! We’ve got a lot more coming on a regular basis so make sure you bookmark the site 🙂

  16. Microwaving doesn’t just kill the enzymes. It changes the molecular structure of food. Studies show eating food or water from a microwave increases the chances of cancer. Research it like you did what kind of food to eat. I kicked the microwave out of my kitchen years ago and we have successfully learned to cook again. Thank you for the good recipes.

    1. That is absolutely false

  17. I made this pretty much exactly except I didn’t have maple extract so I used latanko’s maple flavored syrup instead. It was delicious! I even stored some in the fridge and warmed it up a couple days later and offered some to my boyfriend who isn’t keto and he tried to steal the rest for himself. It’s that good. He said he wouldn’t have been able to tell the difference if I hadn’t told him it wasn’t actual bread. Thanks so much for this recipe, it’s a keeper!

  18. Looks good going to start Monday

  19. I’d love a printer friendly version so I can save the PDF in my Dropbox for future recovery.

    1. Okay David. I am trying to find a site plugin that allows me to make the pdf without ads.

  20. How is the finished product only 1 net carb when 1/3 cup almond flour has 3 net carbs and you use 3/4 cup almond flour. Is it 1 net carb for every 3 sticks?

    1. Yes, the serving size is 3 sticks, and the nutrition facts are calculated per serving, not per batch. As is customary for nutrition labels.

  21. 1 tablespoon (tbs) of maple flavoring or 1 teaspoon (tsp) of maple flavor, the video looks like 1 tsp but recipe says 1 tbs….please advise, thanks.

  22. I use 1/2 cup almond flour and 1/4 flax meal

  23. I’d love to pin this but pinterest blocked me from doing so because they think it leads to spam. Otherwise I will bookmark this and print it so I can try this. I saw your video on FB and it looks amazing!! Is it possible to use Coconut flour and if so how much since it’s so much more absorbent than almond flour.

    1. We are trying to communicate with Pinterest to let them know that we are not spamming their platform. There are just so many people pinning these recipes that I guess their software assumed that there was suspicious activity going on. I will keep bugging them until they fix it, because that is so wrong of them.

    2. Looks like the issue might be resolved now!

  24. Pinterest is blocking your site so I am not able to pin your recipes. I followed your board and I can’t save from there or open your links. I thought you should know because I am very appreciative of your recipes. Thank you!

    1. I know, Pinterest decided that because so many people were pinning the recipes that we must be spamming them. I sent in a support ticket to them today and will keep bugging them until I hear back from them. It’s a shame!

    2. Looks like we might be back up and running again!

      1. Please tell me how to print this.

        1. There is an icon shaped like a printer at the top and bottom of the recipe that will allow you to print it, as well as an option to download it as a PDF file too if you want to save it to your computer.

  25. I don’t know if I could hold ,shelf to just three. At 360 calories that’s almost 1/3 of my caloric quota for the day.

    1. My wife couldn’t even finish three of them before she got full. They are DENSE!

  26. I think that everything posted was actually very reasonable.
    But, consider this, suppose you added a little content?
    I am not saying your information is not solid., however what if you added a
    headline to maybe grab people’s attention? I mean Keto French Toast Sticks Recipe | Keto Daily is a
    little boring. You should glance at Yahoo’s home page and see how they write article titles to grab viewers to click.
    You might add a video or a pic or two to get people interested about everything’ve got to say.
    Just my opinion, it would bring your posts a little bit more interesting.

    1. My favorite thing about them is their lack of all that fluff. I get so tired of going to blogs and dealing with all that extra stuff before I get to the actual recipe. I don’t care about the 20 things that led someone to create a recipe, or whether or not they tried 10 variations before this one, and all that other nonsense people write paragraph after paragraph about. I just want the recipe. So, in my opinion, kudos for having a simpler platform.

      1. LOL, I write some stuff beforehand so that you can get to know me (or at least my eating styles, and so Google can index me properly). Maybe someday I will give the Barbara Walters inter view for the full details.

  27. The person that is trying to get you to change your format is trying is drum up business, maybe . I,myself, like it the way it is !! And I agree with Paula !!!

  28. Made this today as written and it was delicious. It will definitely be in the weekly rotation.

  29. How would I use coconut flour to make these? My fiance has chrons and nuts irritate it, so I’m trying to move him to a keto diet but obviously still learning ratios because I know the flours are different at absorbing liquid…

    1. I posted a similar response earlier (above), but I didn’t know if you’d see that. So here it is again…

      Actually, you can use sunflower seed flour (it’s a seed, not a nut) to replace almond flour (@ 1:1 ratio) for most things. Just buy some unsalted partially defatted sunflower seeds (not roasted), put in a seed grinder, and then run through a sifter (to get out chunks). It usually puffs up a bit more too, making for lighter cakes and breads.

      It’ll cost you one net carb per 1/4 cup (about 28 grams), but the price is also a lot cheaper than both almond and even coconut flour. Sunflower seed is something like $2 a pound instead of $6 or $7 a pound for blanch almonds.

  30. I am new to Keto and very confused about servings and what not. It says 4 servings per container?? What is the container? Also, how many sticks would 1 serving be? Would it be 1 stick? or is 1 serving 3 sticks?

  31. What was the size of pan you used for this recipe?

  32. We have made this a few times and the kids say they are too dry. Any suggestions?

    1. Are you possibly overcooking the “bread” during the microwave portion of it? These things always turn out really moist for me.

      1. I made these twice already. They are amazing! Shared them with friends and family, everyone loved them! Thank you!

  33. what is confusing is the nutritional information for four servings and the serving size is 3 three slices but you say to cut it in 9 slices. What is the serving size that we cook in the rectangle microwave dishes for, is it for 3 or 4 servings?

    1. I was wondering the same thing. In order to have 4 servings of 3 sticks each, that would require cutting it into 12 slices.

  34. How many OZ is one serving?

  35. I made these twice already. They are amazing! Shared them with friends and family, everyone loved them! Thank you!

    1. Thanks Jeanne! I haven’t made them in a while. Thanks for reminding me 🙂

  36. Thank you, Keto Daily. I think I love you as I have been so hungry for a yummy bread recipe and your recipe looks easy for me to make. Can’t wait to try it. Just have to feel good enough to go shopping, and I WILL!!!! God Bless

  37. How big is the microwave dish? And what other breads can I make like this?

  38. I hate eggs, but absolutely love French toasts! I want to try this but I’m concerne they will taste eggy?!

    1. You can make egg dishes like this have less egg flavor by using room temperature eggs. Just take them out of the fridge a half hour or so before you use them.

  39. Wondering actual serving size. Directions say cut bread into 7-9 pieces but nutritional info says 4 servings-3 sticks per serving. That would be 12 sticks. Doesn’t make sense.

  40. How about adding metric units for your international fans?
