I think you have a problem. The EEA family permit is only valid for the UK, you cannot use it in any other country (maybe Ireland?). Once you get a residency card, you can theoretically travel through EU without your spouse. In France this seems to work, although some other countries continue to make traveling rather difficult.

The best thing to do is to ask the French Consulate in the UK. You probably have to apply for a visitor visa, and I can see no reason why you shouldn't get it.

If visiting the UK, i.e. either holding a C-Visit British visa or with a British Residency valid for 6 months or less:
8. Your confirmed return travel ticket to your country of residence;
9. Proof of your stay in the UK (letter from the British school/ company for studies/ business, letter of invitation from your sponsor in the UK + their passport + their birth certificate with English translation certified by Embassy). Those applicants must apply in person.

Is EEA Family permit considered a British Residency valid for 6 month or less referred to above?
