[Video] How to Make French Toast (Grain-Free, Paleo)

I’ve got a new cooking video for you today – How to Make French Toast.

This recipe can be made with any sort of dense bread, so you can choose between gluten-free, grain-free, Paleo, etc. I like to serve the french toast with maple syrup, berries and whipped cream.

How to Make French Toast

To keep the video on the shorter side, I only used 4 pieces of bread, but the recipe calls for 8 pieces.
Serves 4

For the French Toast:
1 cup whole milk (or coconut milk for dairy-free/Paleo)
2 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of Celtic sea salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon ghee, leaf lard, duck fat, etc. (any heat that can be used at a high heat)
8 thick slices dense of stale bread (I used my grain-free banana bread)*

For the Topping:
1/2 cup maple syrup
Fresh Berries
1 cup whipped cream (optional)

Whisk together the milk, egg yolks, maple syrup, cinnamon, salt and vanilla extract in an 8×8″ baking dish. Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat for 2 minutes.

Place each piece of bread into the milk mixture. Let the each side of the bread sit for 20 seconds. Using a pair of tongs, transfer the soaked bread over to the hot pan. Let the bread cook for 1-2 minutes until the bottom side is golden brown. Using a spatula, flip the bread and continue cooking an additional 1-2 minutes until the second side is golden brown.

Serve immediately with maple syrup, berries and whipped cream (if using).

*I like to place the bread on a cooling rack that has been set over a baking sheet and leave it out overnight so the bread gets stale. If you forgot to do this step, you can put the bread in a 300 degree F oven for about 10 minutes, until stale.

Note: I only test the recipes on my site with the listed ingredients and measurements. If you would like to try a substitution, you are welcome to share what you used and how it turned out in the comments below. Thanks!

    What kind of non stick pan and utensil are you using in the video? I'm probably naive but I thought non stick pans and plastic-ish utensils were toxic.... Thanks!!

      I'm using an enameled, cast iron Le Creuset pan. It's a very healthy pan to use. I've never been able to find a good wooden angled spatula (if you know of a company that makes one, please let me know!), so for flipping the bread, I'm using a bpa-free plastic spatula. Metal could scratch the enemal, so that's why I prefer to use he plastic spatula. As long as you don't leave the spatula in the pan to heat along with the bread, you should be fine.

        Oh I can't wait to get a pan like that! Thanks so much for the reply. Love your site and have recommended it to friends who suspect auto immune issues as a great starting point. God {continue to} bless y'all.
