France’s original French toast — literally ‘lost bread’, a peasant dish elevated to elegance — reinvented with brioche-style keto bread soaked in a rich vanilla-orange custard, pan-fried in butter until caramelized gold, and served with a warm raspberry coulis and dollops of fresh Chantilly cream. A weekend breakfast that feels like a Michelin-starred dessert.
