Keto French Toast-Inspired Egg Loaf

Since my son went on a protein kick, I’m always looking for creative, tasty ways to help him reach his goals — this recipe quickly became a family favorite. It’s filling, flavorful, and easy to customize, which makes it perfect for busy mornings or post-workout snacks.. This simple, satisfying egg loaf is a dream for anyone following a low-carb, keto, or high-protein lifestyle — but it’s so delicious, you don’t need to be on a special diet to fall in love with it. Made with just a handful of ingredients, it bakes into a soft, custard-like loaf that feels indulgent but is packed with protein and healthy fats.

What makes this dish truly special is how versatile it is. Enjoy it warm straight from the oven, or let it cool and slice it up for reheating. You can pan-toast it on both sides in a little butter, to give it the golden edges and slightly crisp exterior reminiscent of classic French toast, without the bread. Top it with fresh berries, a drizzle of sugar-free maple syrup, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for a comforting, nostalgic breakfast that won’t spike your blood sugar.

This recipe has become a staple for busy mornings, weekend brunches, and everything in between. It’s quick to prepare, makes your kitchen smell amazing, and keeps well in the fridge for several days. You can even freeze individual slices for a grab-and-toast option anytime. Give my High-Protein Low-Carb French Toast Alternative recipe a try, you won’t be disappointed!

INGREDIENTS:

• 7 large eggs

• 1 (8 oz) block of cream cheese, softened

• 4 teaspoons of butter, softened

• 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract

• 1 tablespoon of low fat vanilla yogurt

• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon

STEPS:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Grease the bottom of a glass baking dish.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract, yogurt and cinnamon. Using a hand mixer (or blender) blend until completely smooth and well incorporated.

3. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and gently tap the pan on the counter to release any air bubbles.

4. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is puffed and lightly golden.

5. The loaf will deflate slightly as it cools — that’s normal!

6. Slice into thick pieces.

7. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.

8. *Optional step: Toast each slice in a buttered skillet over medium heat until golden brown on both sides.

9. Bon appétit! Enjoy!
