French toast is one of the most delicious breakfasts. I don’t eat french toast very often; I try to stay away for gluten because it raises my blood sugar too much and causes some swelling issues. If I am going to eat french toast, I like my recipe made with brioche. I have been making french toast since I was a little girl. My dad asked me to make it on the weekends because he loved it so much.
I only top my french toast with a little butter. You can use a variety of toppings. Make sure you count the carbs in your toppings. I have only calculated the ingredients in the recipe. Make some other breakfast options for the morning Blood Orange Low Carb Granola is perfect.
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp nutmeg
- 1 lb loaf sliced brioche
- 1 tbsp Irish butter
Instructions
- Place eggs, coconut milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a square baking dish. Whisk together until thoroughly mixed. Melt butter over medium-low heat in 12-inch skillet. Place sliced bread in egg mix and flip don’t soak—place in hot skillet. I can fit four pieces at a time in a 12-inch skillet. Flip after about 1 1/2-2 minutes and cook another side 1 1/2-2 until golden on each side. Sever with powdered sugar, fruit, or syrup.
