Savory Keto Egg Muffins
These savory keto egg muffins are a perfect low-carb, high-protein option for breakfast or a healthy snack, packed with sausage, cheese, and green onions.
Equipment
- Medium Skillet
- 12-cup muffin tin
- Large Bowl
- Parchment Paper or Silicone Liners
Ingredients
- 0.5 pound bulk hot Italian sausage (or your favorite sausage)
- 8 large eggs
- 0.25 cup heavy whipping cream
- 0.5 cup shredded Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
- 2 medium green onions thinly sliced (white and light green parts only)
- 0.75 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- In a medium skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until it's fully cooked and no longer pink, about 7-8 minutes. Break up any large clumps with a spoon as it cooks. Once done, set it aside to cool slightly.
- While the sausage cools, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with parchment paper or silicone liners for easy removal and cleanup.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until they are well combined and smooth. Then, gently stir in the cooled sausage, shredded cheese, sliced green onions, salt, and pepper until everything is evenly mixed.
- Carefully divide the savory egg mixture among the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the muffins are beautifully puffed up and golden brown.
- Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your healthy, protein-packed breakfast or snack!
