If your Family loves French Toast then they’re gonna love this Delicious Casserole. It’s really quick to make and tastes just as good as the original.
How Do You Make Keto French Toast Casserole?
To make this easy Keto French Toast Casserole, melt the shredded mozzarella and the cream cheese in a frying pan over medium heat. Remove from the heat, then stir the melted cheeses until they’re well combined. Using a mixing bowl, add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum and eggs to the cheese mixture. Mix until well combined.
On a cookie sheet, press the dough into a rectangle between 2 pieces of parchment paper. Approximately 10 ” x 8″. Remove the top piece of parchment paper, then poke some holes in it with a fork. Brush with the melted butter. Then combine and sprinkle half of the sweetener and cinnamon over the top. Bake 8 – 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven, then cut into 1/2 ” squares. Place the bread squares into a very well buttered, 8″ square baking dish. Mix the 6 eggs with the heavy cream, then pour it over the cubed bread. Then sprinkle the remaining sweetener and cinnamon over the top. Dot the top with the butter, then bake for 18 – 20 minutes.
WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?
The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When in ketosis, your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source.
On Keto, you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from Fat, 15 to 25 percent from Protein, and 10 percent from Carbohydrates. You should avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

Jen
Love it!! It’s so easy and tastes amazing 🙂
Nina
Anyone know the nutritional information on this?
Kristin
Looking forward to trying this recipe! If I wanted to make a 9×13 instead of 8×8, what adjustments do you think I should make? Thanks!
officially gluten free
Hi Kristin, the casserole will be quite thin in a 9×13 pan as it is. I would think about doubling the fathead dough to fill the pan a bit more. You’ll want to add 1 or 2 more eggs before baking as well if doubling the dough.
Hope that helps.

Do you think using flavored cream cheese (strawberry)would help give it a sweet, fruity taste?
officially gluten free
Hi Tracee, I do think it would add a nice fruity taste. Great idea 😊

Carolyn
I’ve never made fathead dough before. Does this french toast casserole taste like mozzarella?
officially gluten free
Hi Carolyn, I thought it tasted like bread more than I was expecting it to. As for a cheesy taste, I didn’t find it tasted like cheese. Fathead does have a distinct taste but I personally think you could taste the flours more than anything.
Hope that helps.

Darlene
Can this be made the night before like you can with regular French toast casserole? Has anyone tried?
officially gluten free

This was absolutely amazing!! My husband was wondering why I was eating “normal” bread and sugar for breakfast. I let him believe it until we were finished. I told him it was keto and he couldn’t believe it! He had two large helpings! I know I’ll be making this again as it was so yummy and cured my carbs and sweets craving! It was so filling! Thank you for the recipe.
Deanna
Made this today and O.M.G.!!! It’s simply delicious, all the French toast taste, it’s not too eggy (as I find most keto “breads”,) and satisfies that comfort food craving. Thank you so much for this! ❤️❤️❤️
PS- the little ones t-shirt is awesome!
Elaine C
I’ve tried this several times and it comes out wonderful. Do you think it would freeze well in sections?
officially gluten free
Yes, it would.
Michelle
What a great recipe! We loved this! I did add 1 tsp vanilla to egg/cream mixture because that’s how I make my regular french toast. I also make a non-KETO blueberry stuffed French toast that just had fresh blueberries and chunks of cream cheese tossed into the mix…I think that will work just as well with this recipe too. I will be trying that next. Thanks for the recipe!
Rachel
Had to keep in oven a tad longer,
Also I wet my hands when kneading out fathead dough instead of double parchment, works super well!
Also also also- our sf syrup on it.
SO GOOD.
Jen
Preparing for new baby’s arrival and wanted to make some meals ahead of time to put in the freezer. Do you think this recipe will handle freezer time? if so, how long do you think it will last?
