Naturally Sweetened
We used banana to sweeten this healthy french toast recipe and then topped it with pure maple syrup, but really you can use any toppings you like. We’ve done grass-fed butter, nut butter, coconut butter, fresh berry compote, etc. Whatever you have on hand and sounds good is exactly what you should use! What are you thinking you’ll top this healthy french toast with? Let us know so we can give it a try, too!
Add A Side Of Bacon
Justin’s mom raises pigs, so we usually get our bacon from her, and it is hands down the best bacon I’ve ever had! Like almost all other bacon is completely ruined after having the good stuff from Justin’s mom. It is truly a sad day when the bacon runs out at our house. To get us through when the good stuff is gone though, we’ve found the Hempler’s bacon at our local Costco is a good interim solution. It’s the applewood uncured bacon, and it’s actually pretty good! I thought it was extra great before ever having Justin’s mom’s bacon, so if you’ve never had the fresh, pastured bacon like Justin’s mom’s pigs you’ll probably love Hempler’s. And for reals, add a side of bacon to this healthy french toast, and you’ll pretty much be in heaven!

Healthy French Toast (Paleo + Grain-free)
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- ½ cup almond butter
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tbsp grass-fed butter or ghee, (or coconut oil for dairy free)
- Pure maple syrup, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400° Fahrenheit.
- Add eggs, almond butter, banana, cinnamon, and vanilla to a blender. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.
- Heat an oven safe medium skillet over medium-low heat and add in butter or ghee. Once melted, pour mixture from blender into skillet.
