These simple 3-ingredient egg cups can be made ahead of time for a grab-and-go breakfast that fits into your keto and low-carb lifestyle. Try different cheeses like pepper Jack or smoked Gouda for a change of pace. This works best with regular bacon, as thick-cut won't cook up as well. This recipe can easily be doubled.
Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon
- nonstick cooking spray
- 5 eggs
- 0.5 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.

2
Place slices of bacon on the prepared baking sheet.

3
Place bacon in the preheated oven and bake until partially cooked, but still pliable, about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven, and reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Let bacon rest until cool enough to handle.
-
4
Spray 6 cups of a muffin pan with cooking spray.
-
5
Whisk eggs together in a medium bowl. Wrap a slice of bacon around the inside of each prepared muffin cup. Divide Cheddar cheese amongst the 6 muffin cups and top with beaten egg.
