Low-Carb Blueberry French Toast Casserole is a phenomenal paleo brunch recipe. We love making this dish for Mother’s Day brunch, but it’s so good that we have it all year round.

My dairy-free French Toast is made with Paleo Bread dipped in a creamy coconut milk batter.
Easy French Toast Recipe
I like to bake my Paleo Bread the day before I make this Blueberry French Toast Casserole. I let the bread cool overnight, then easily throw this dish together the next morning.

Serve gluten-free French Toast with my dairy-free Keto Coconut Whipped Cream. I haven’t experimented yet with turning this French Toast into a keto breakfast recipe. If you’re looking for low-carb high-fat recipes you’ll want to take a look at my Keto Diet Recipes page.

Blueberry French Toast Casserole Recipe
The idea for this recipe came from one called Bradley Inn Blueberry French Toast Casserole I found in our local paper, the Daily Camera.

Another great low-carb breakfast recipe? My flourless Banana Chocolate Chip Pancakes made with 7 ingredients total.
Food & Photography
The technique I used for this photo is a little more about the composition than the food, very artsy. I’ll keep taking the close up photographs that I have since I went grain-free in 2001. Which style of food photography do you like best?

Thanks Elana! I have wanted one of those easy breakfast casseroles that I can eat. So easy and yummy. Thanks for taking Paleo Bread to the next level!
Elana says
You’re welcome Charee!
Stylin says
Another delicious looking recipe. As soon as I saw the photo I thought Blueberry BREAD PUDDING!! I’m definitely not talented enough to come up with my own recipe, but would love to see one on here in the future if the mood ever strikes you.
I like both photo styles, but find the closeups much more helpful… My vote is closeup.
Elana says
Stylin, this recipe might be good with my Keto Blueberry Lemon Bread:

I haven’t tried it so not sure if it will be perfect, but I’m going to experiment to find out!
Have a great day!

Beautiful recipe, I cannot wait to try it, but the overhead shot does not do it justice. Unlike your close up shots, it looks a bit messy or scrambled, and really does not have the allure of texture nor highlights an individual ingredient. Great to try new techniques though and looking forward to your latest book!
Elana says
Thanks Sandra!
leslie dietrich says
This looks amazing! And I hope I am served this in bed mother’s day!
Elana says
That sounds perfect Leslie!
Julie says
I love that you keep exploring and creating… food and photography (and I’m sure in a lot of other ways in the rest of your life!) I have to say, the way you photograph food close up always tempts me to try the recipes… it’s like you’re offering me a bite! Like, it’s about the experience, not the perfect assembled dish, if that makes sense. Thanks for putting so much love into your work, and sharing it with us! xoxo
Elana says
Julie, thanks so much!
Kathryn says
This looks like dessert for breakfast and I love the combo. We have to avoid cinnamon but it sounds like there would be plenty of flavor without. Your photography is always gorgeous – it’s fun to switch things up.
Elana says
Thanks Kathryn!
Amy says
I am trying this tomorrow! I prefer the close up pictures, but either way the recipes still taste delicious.
Elana says
Amy, that’s so sweet of you to say! Thanks :-)
Karen says
Hi Elana,
thanks so much for the great recipe. You are always at the top of my must-see food blogging sites and you have saved my butt so many times in the gluten-free / paleo baking department — yikes, I couldn’t live without you.
After looking through your site for so many years, I have to say I like your close-ups the best.
I can’t wait to try this recipe — it will make Sunday brunch a real treat.
Love, Karen
Elana says
Thanks Karen!
Gita says
I vote for the close-ups.
Thanks for the great recipes!
Elana says
Thanks Gita!
Tania says
Do you think this would work with gluten free bread?
Janet says
Yes. I made it with Rudi’s Original gluten-free bread and it came out perfect.
