Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter.
Cut or tear the low-carb bread slices into 1-inch cubes and evenly spread them in the prepared baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, almond milk, granulated low-carb sweetener, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until fully combined.
Pour the egg mixture over the bread cubes, making sure that all pieces are well coated. Use a spatula to gently press the bread down into the liquid to ensure even absorption.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the top of the casserole.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and let it sit for about 10 minutes at room temperature to absorb flavors.
Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes covered.
After 25 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes. Drizzle with low-carb maple syrup before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious, low-carb French toast casserole!
