My Family Size Low Carb French Toast is a great recipe to make for weekend brunch. Just because you are following the keto diet doesn’t mean you can’t have a great family breakfast on the weekends. Serve up with a side of bacon, sausage, or ham for a delicious meal that stays within your macros.
Low Carb French Toast
When I first posted my 90 Second French Toast Recipe, I had several people ask how they could cook more at one time. I also had several ask how they could make it without cooking the bread in the microwave.
Fast forward to this afternoon, and I had not planned dinner. Therefore I was scrambling last minute to figure out what to cook. The only thing that sounded good was bacon so I thought I’d make the 90 Second French Toast. Then, I remembered how much my family loved it last time. All of the 90-Second recipes are fabulous for one or two servings, but I needed something more substantial since there are 6 in my family.
I decided the best thing to do was to increase the recipe to make a loaf of bread, then slice it and turn it into French Toast. It turned out beautifully and it was so yummy! The bread could be made the day before or even frozen until you are ready to make French Toast. If you’d rather just make one serving, check out my 90 Second Keto French Toast Recipe.

I don’t personally love the bread as is, but once you dip it in the egg/heavy whipping cream mixture, fry it in butter, and sprinkle it with Swerve Confectioner’s Sweetener you have a winner on your hands. Trust the process, it will be worth it I promise!
French Toast {Keto / Low Carb}
Ingredients
- For the Bread:
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 10 tablespoons of butter melted
- 8 eggs
- 1 1/4 oz cream cheese
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- Optional - use 1 tablespoon Pumpkin Pie Spice instead of cinnamon and nutmeg
- For the French Toast:
- 5 eggs
- 1 cup HWC
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 2 tsp Swerve Sweetener Confectioners
Instructions
For the Bread:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Melt butter and cream cheese together.
- Add all other ingredients and stir. (If butter and cream cheese are very hot you may want to let them cool for about 5 minutes before adding other ingredients so that the hot butter doesn't scramble the eggs.)
- Grease a loaf pan or line loaf pan with parchment paper. I lined mine with parchment paper and would recommend doing the same.
- Pour batter in the loaf pan and bake for 40-50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow bread to cool for a few minutes then remove from pan and slice.
For the French Toast:
- In a casserole dish add eggs and heavy whipping cream.
- Whip with a whisk until thoroughly combined.
- Dip bread slices in egg mixture and turn to coat both sides.
- Melt butter in a skillet or on a griddle.
- Fry bread dipped in egg mixture in butter browning each side.
- When brown on both sides remove from pan and sprinkle Swerve Confectioners Sweetener on top.
- Serve with a few berries or sugar free syrup.

Hi!
In the ingredient list for the french toast is HWC. What is that?
Thanks so much!
Okay, heavy whipping cream, I’ve got it! I saw it on another link. Can’t wait to try it!
Great!
Sorry! I need to update that. It is heavy whipping cream. 🙂
I don’t have the Swerve confectioners sweetener, do you think that makes a big difference?
I would use sugar free syrup or something to sweeten it like french toast or perhaps butter with maple extract.
Hi! I just made the loaf and it looked beautiful- but once I took it out and let it cool, it deflated ALOT! Am I doing something wrong? How do I get it to stay fluffy?
Hmmmmm….I haven’t had that happen. Is your baking powder fresh?
Can I substitute the heavy whipping cream for almond milk? And could I use stevia powder instead of swerve?
I haven’t personally tried either one of those substitutions so I can’t say from experience but it’s worth a try. I don’t use Stevia because I think it tastes bitter.
What does HWC mean?
heavy whipping cream
Just made the bread recipe for 14 slices – it was super easy!! LOVED that it used the coconut flour since I’m running out of almond flour and in the boonies for the summer and no close place to get large packages of it (like Costco etc.) Excited to make the french toast tomorrow morning. Stay tuned……
I hope you enjoyed it!
This was delicious and very easy to make!
Awesome! So glad you loved it
