1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 large egg

Step-by-Step Instructions

Making the 90 Second Bread

Step1: In a microwave-safe rectangular container (approximately 4×6 inches), mix all bread ingredients until well combined. The container shape is important as it will determine the shape of your bread.

Step2: Smooth the top of the mixture with a spoon or spatula to create an even surface.

Step3: Microwave on high for 90 seconds. The bread should be firm to the touch and slightly springy when done.

Step4: Allow the bread to cool for 1-2 minutes, then carefully remove from the container and place on a cutting board.

Step5: Slice the bread into 6-8 even sticks, about ¾-inch thick. These will be your French toast sticks.

Making the French Toast

Step1: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg, heavy cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, sweetener, and nutmeg until well combined.

Step2: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and allow it to melt completely.

Step3: Dip each bread stick into the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are well coated but not soggy.

Step4: Place the coated sticks in the hot skillet, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

Step5: Add the remaining tablespoon of butter as needed when cooking the second batch.

Step6: Transfer the cooked French toast sticks to a plate and serve immediately with your favorite keto-friendly toppings.

Pro Tips for Perfect Keto French Toast Sticks

For crispier results: After making the 90 second bread, let it cool completely before slicing. You can even refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes to firm it up, making it easier to slice and helping it hold its shape better during cooking.
Flavor variations: Add a dash of maple extract to the egg mixture for a more authentic French toast flavor without adding carbs.
Cooking technique: Don’t flip the sticks too early. Wait until you see the edges turn golden brown to ensure they don’t fall apart during flipping.
Make-ahead option: You can prepare several batches of the 90 second bread in advance and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, making breakfast prep even quicker.
Temperature control: Keep your heat at medium – too high and the outside will burn before the inside cooks through; too low and the sticks will absorb too much butter and become greasy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different flour than almond or coconut?

Yes, you can use all almond flour (4 tablespoons) if you don’t have coconut flour. However, using a combination of both gives the best texture. If using all coconut flour, reduce to just 1.5 tablespoons as it’s more absorbent.

Is there a dairy-free option for this recipe?

Absolutely! Replace butter with coconut oil and substitute heavy cream with full-fat coconut milk. The flavor will be slightly different but still delicious.

Can I make this recipe in the oven instead of the microwave?

Yes, you can bake the bread mixture in a small greased oven-safe dish at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-12 minutes or until set. The texture will be slightly different but still works well for French toast.

My 90 second bread turned out rubbery, what happened?

Overcooking in the microwave is usually the culprit. Microwaves vary in power, so try reducing the cooking time by 10-15 seconds. Also, letting the bread cool completely before using can help improve the texture.

What can I use instead of erythritol?

Any keto-friendly sweetener will work, including monk fruit, allulose, or stevia. Just be sure to adjust quantities based on sweetness levels, as some alternatives are sweeter than others.
