If your egg fast includes sugar free sweeteners – this recipe uses a really versatile base that you can make french toast, waffles, pancakes, and crepes with while staying within eggfast guidelines. My sweetener of choice was Jordan’s Skinny Vanilla Syrup because the total carb count is still zero. You can use whatever sweetener floats your boat, but I would suggest you test a tablespoon of your batter in the microwave to adjust accordingly.
Some notes:
I used these silicone cavities to portion out the batter. This recipe will fill 12 cavities so it’s perfectly portioned. This is the recommended way to cook these because my recipe is based on using these to cook the batter.
If you do not want those cavities, try mini loaf pans or muffin tins.
If you use a square or loaf pan to bake, just pour all of the batter in the pan and bake until the mixture is no longer liquid. Oven times will vary but 20-30 mins is pretty standard depending on your pan and oven.
Keto Eggfast French Toast
Honestly, these give us major blintz vibes – they are so good, they make you forget you're on an eggfast.
6tablespoonssugar free vanilla syruptry 4 tablespoons first, microwave 1 tablespoon of the batter for 30 seconds, and then adjust sweetness accordingly
2tspbaking powder
4-6shakesground cinnamon
1/2tspGolden Monkfruit sweetener(more to taste)
Instructions
Soften the butter and cream cheese in the microwave for 30 seconds.
Add the eggs, vanilla syrup, baking powder, and cinnamon.
Use a hand mixer to thoroughly mix for 2-3 minutes.
Fil 3/4 of the silicon cavities with the batter.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
When you’re ready to serve, pan fry each side in a medium heat non stick pan. For best results, cut the portions into bite sized pieces and then pan fry.
Sprinkle sweetener and cinnamon to taste over the pieces once you’re done pan frying.

These are some of our favorite ways to enjoy one of our favorite sandwiches when we are craving the real deal. “Banh mi” literally translates to “bread” and Vietnamese. Hopefully, someone comes up with the billion dollar idea how to keto-fy french baguettes soon – but until then, these are the best we’ve had get our fix.
Some notes:
The absolute EASIEST WAY to make these is to purchase the cold cuts, Vietnamese mayo, pickled veggies, and paté from your local asian market or Vietnamese deli. You can make your own fixins’ but it’s a process.
If you have a Banh Mi shop near you, like Lee’s Sandiwich, Tip Top, Banh Mi Ba Le, or similar – those shops will have the ingredients ready for grab and go.
The key to a crispy wrap is the lavash that you use – our absolutely favorite to use for these are CutDaCarb flatwraps. You can ONLY purchase them online directly from their website cutdacarb.com. A close second is low carb lavash bread you can find at specialty markets or Middle eastern grocery stores. The third option is Josephy’s lavash bread that can almost always be found at Walmarts across the country.
I have only fried pockets but you can air fry or bake them to your liking. Try 375 degrees for 4-5 minutes.
While the oil is heating, mix the diced meat, cucumbers, mayo, jalapenos, cilantro, and pickled veggies.
On a cutting board, cut the lavash bread into event four strips (width-wise).
Spread the pate on the surface of each strip.
Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of the banh mi mixture and place it on the bottom right hand corner of lavash strip.
Fold the bottom right hand corner of the strip to the left to cover the banh mixture. Continue following the fold until you reach the other side of the lavash strip. Follow the diagram below to see how to continue folding the pocket.
Fry the pockets seam side down in the hot oil. These fry fast, so each side should crisp up within 1-2 minutes. Flip and fry the other side.
Place the fried pockets on a paper towel lined plate to soak up any excess grease
Sprinkle black pepper in soy sauce and enjoy it as a dip for the banh mi pocket!

If loving these is wrong, we don’t want to be right. Luckily, these are super keto friendly and easy to make. You can easily swap out the strawberry syrup for strawberry jam or a homemade strawberry sauce.
Add dry ingredients to the wet mix (almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, sweetener, salt.
Pour onto a griddle or non stick skillet on medium heat. If you are not using the mini Dash griddle, flip when you start to see the mixture bubble. Each side should be golden. Use your first pancake to test out the time, as stoves and pans will differ – which will vary the cook time.
Top with strawberries, chocolate syrup, and whipped cream.

One time, I paid $15 for a tiny jar of keto cookie dough…NEVER AGAIN!
This recipe is perfect for when you’re craving some cookies but don’t have time to wait for them to bake. It’s very customizable once you make the base so if you don’t have chocolate chips, sprinkle a mix of cinnamon/sweetener for some edible snickerdoodle dough.

I don’t know about you, but I LOVE pancakes. Give me pancakes any time of day and I’m a happy camper. The only issue is when I’m trying to really reduce total carbs, the classic almond flour pancakes that I love are just too high for me. ENTER: Isopure unflavored whey isolate protein powder – aka magic dust from the keto gods. Zero carb and versatile as hell! They give these pancakes a pancake texture and more fluff and firmness than if you were just making an egg pancake or crepe.
Here are some notes:
If you eat this hot off the pan, they will taste eggy. Give them a hot minute to cool and then you will get the pancake vibes you’ve been craving.
I use isopure because it’s the only brand I’ve ever used – if you want to use your favorite brand, go ahead and do so – but I have never used another whey isolate protein powder from another brand.
I use unflavored whey isolate so I can control the taste and sweetness. If you have protein powder you want to try to use, please go ahead and try, but the carb count will be different – and possibly the texture.
Here’s the sweetener I use for these pancakes – it’s the liquid stevia in toffee because it’s zero total carbs. I understand lots of people calculate net carbs in other sweeteners, but for a true zero carb situation, I prefer this liquid sweetener. It’s easy to work with and mixes beautifully in the batter.
Melt the butter in the microwave (about 20 seconds). Meanwhile, start heating a non-stick pan on medium heat.
In the same bowl as the butter, add half and half to the warm butter and mix.
Mix in whey and baking powder to the butter and half and half to form a thick, but smooth batter. No lumps!
Add vanilla and liquid stevia and continue mixing.
Whisk in eggs and let the batter sit for a minute or two.
Pour batter onto the hot pan – let it bubble up and then flip. The first side should only take 1-2 minutes to bubble up and the second side will only need half as much time to cook. Test out one pancake first to adjust sweetness and to get a better idea of cook time on your stove and pan.

This one’s a crowd favorite any time we whip it out from the archives. It’s so incredibly easy and makes you forget that you’re living a low carb lifestyle.
Whisk the eggs with milk and a tsp of salt. Throw the chicken into the liquid mix.
Heat oil to 375 degrees. In a separate bowl, mix pork crumbs, powdered sweetener, garlic powder, onion powder, 2 tsp salt, white pepper, cayenne pepper, and unflavored whey isolate protein powder.
Take the chicken out of the egg mixture, making sure to not have any excess egg. Lightly toss the chicken in the coating mixture and drop one by one into the hot oil for 3-4 minutes.

If you’ve never heard or had bacon jam before, prepare to have your mind blown. It is just as it sounds, a jam made from bacon except this one is sweet, salty, garlicky, and all the good stuff in one. The recipe itself is super simple but you need to bring patience and some time to kill because this one’s low and slow. Use bacon jam on burgers, eggs, as a spread, dip, or mixed with cream cheese. You could honestly just eat it with a spoon it’s so good.

These are an easy way to get your sweet fix without the sugar high or guilt. They have the texture of a soft gummy, firm jello, or soft fruit snack – whichever floats your boat to describe it. I keep mine in the fridge after I take them out of the mold so they continue to stay firm. You can use anything to flavor the gummies – I prefer to use the individual drink packets you can pick up at the Dollar Tree, Walgreens, or grocery store but if you want to keep it clean you could add electrolyte drink mixes or naturally sweetened water enhancers. I purchased my molds on Amazon.
You just need to remember these two tips: 1. Make sure the gelatin powder is completely dissolved in the water before pour the mixture into the molds and 2. You need to work quickly, do not try to pre-make the mixture and then save the pouring for another time.
