Easy 5-Ingredient Keto Low-Carb Egg Muffin Bites
I'm back with another healthy meal prep snack for you! (This is also a great breakfast with just a protein swap.) You have to try my Easy 5-Ingredient Keto Low-Carb Egg Muffin Bites! Muffin tins are filled with fluffy eggs, melty cheese, and turkey pepperoni and then baked to perfection. This ultimate low-carb snack tastes great and will keep you full for hours!
Ingredients
- 10 eggs
- 5.3 oz. cottage cheese sour cream would be a good replacement, but it doesn't have as much protein
- salt/black pepper to taste
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 36 slices turkey pepperoni
- 1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Second, spray a 12-count muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray (I like to use avocado oil)
- Third, crack the eggs into a mixing bowl.
- Then, add the cottage cheese, heavy cream, salt, and pepper to the eggs and give it a really good mix. (I go easy with the salt because some of the other ingredients already have added salt.)
- ​Next, quarter the turkey pepperoni on a cutting board and layer them evenly into the muffin tins.
- Add 1/8 cup of cheddar cheese to each muffin tin.
- Then, using a measuring cup, pour the egg mixture into each muffin tin until they are all filled.
- Take a fork and stir the mixture in the muffin tins to make sure that everything is incorporated.
- Next, place into the oven and let them bake for 30 minutes.
- To remove the egg bites from the muffin tin, use a butter knife to loosen up the edges and pull out.
- Finally, enjoy it as a quick snack on the go, or pair it with a side or salad to make a meal!
