Step-by-Step Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions

    1. Prepare the Bread:
      • Slice the keto-friendly bread into 1-inch thick sticks.
    2. Make the Egg Mixture:
      • In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
    3. Dip the Bread Sticks:
      1. Quickly dip each bread stick into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s evenly coated but not overly soaked. Allow the excess to drip off.
    4. Cook the French Toast Sticks:
      1. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a little butter or oil.
      2. Place the coated bread sticks on the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.

Serve Warm:

Transfer the French toast sticks to a serving plate and serve immediately with a side of low-carb maple syrup for dipping. Optionally, garnish with fresh berries.
