Description

Imagine waking up to the alluring aroma of golden-brown French toast, a symphony of textures and flavors promising a delightful start to your day. This isn't just any French toast; it's a carefully crafted experience, beginning with a special homemade bread that forms the foundation of this delectable treat. Preparing the bread a day ahead allows its flavors to deepen and its texture to mature, resulting in a slice that's sturdy enough to soak up the rich custard without becoming soggy.

The bread, with its subtly sweet and gently dense crumb, is the perfect canvas for the luscious custard bath that awaits. This isn't your average dip; it's a velvety blend of creamy richness and warm spice, designed to infuse every pore of the bread with flavor. As each slice nestles in the custard, it eagerly absorbs the mixture, plumping up and promising a burst of flavor with every bite.

The magic truly happens when the soaked bread meets the heat of the pan. A gentle sizzle announces the transformation as the exterior turns a beautiful golden brown, creating a delicate crust that offers a satisfying contrast to the soft, custardy interior. The aroma intensifies, filling your kitchen with the comforting scent of caramelized sugar and warm spices – a sensory invitation that's impossible to resist.

Each bite is a revelation. The initial crispness gives way to a pillowy softness, as the custard melts in your mouth, releasing a wave of comforting sweetness. Hints of vanilla and spice dance on your palate, creating a complex yet harmonious flavor profile that's both familiar and exciting.

Whether enjoyed as a luxurious brunch centerpiece, a leisurely weekend indulgence, or simply a moment of comforting self-care, this French toast is a reminder that simple ingredients, combined with a touch of care, can create extraordinary culinary experiences. Serve with your favorite toppings – a dusting of powdered sugar, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a scattering of fresh berries – to elevate this already exceptional dish to new heights.

Instructions

    1.
    Preheat and oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, salt, xanthan gum, and first amounts of stevia and cinnamon with a whisk.
    2.
    Next, whisk in the first amount of eggs. Whisk until you have a lump-free, cake-like batter.
    3.
    Pour the batter in a loaf pan that has been sprayed with pan spray. Bake the loaf for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
    4.
    Cool the loaf for 5 minutes, pop it out of your loaf pan, and allow it to cool fully before wrapping it in plastic wrap. When ready, have it tightly wrapped and store it in your refrigerator overnight. Keep the loaf cold will create a dense texture that is easy to slice the next day.
    5.
    The next day, unwrap your loaf and slice it in half lengthwise, revealing the inside of the load. Then, slice each half into 3 pieces, giving 6 pieces total.
    6.
    *Please note some ingredients in this step are different from the amounts listed in the ingredient list. In a bowl, whisk together cup heavy cream, 1 cup almond milk, 1 egg, as well as the listed amounts of stevia, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
    7.
    To make the french toast, have the toast slices, dipping batter, and a clean plate ready at your cooking area. Dip 1 or 2 pieces of toast in the batter, making sure they get completely soaked.
    8.
    Choose a pan that only fits the amount of toast you will be cooking at one time. It suggested you don try to cook more than 2 pieces at a time. Melt a TB of butter per piece of toast in the pan over a medium-low heat. Place your wet toast in the hot butter.
    9.
    Let the toast cook on one side for 60-120 seconds, depending on your heat level. For perfectly golden french toast, low and slow is the way to cook, albeit time consuming. Flip the toast over and cook evenly on the other side.
    10.
    Repeat this process for all 6 pieces of toast. Enjoy hot! Top with fresh fruit or a Keto Whipped Cream.
