Egg Muffins Recipe Notes
These egg muffins come together almost effortlessly. Here are a few tips to make it super speedy!
Ingredient Notes
These easy muffins are made with absolutely quintessential breakfast ingredients:
Eggs – Eggs are the perfect low carb food, packed with protein, nutrients, and almost no net carbs. You’ll need 1 dozen eggs for these keto breakfast muffins.
Bacon – I line the bottom of these easy egg muffins with slices of thick, salty bacon. Make sure to check the label at the store, and beware of anything that says “brown sugar” or “maple.” Those versions are often stuffed with sneaky carbs.
Cheese – I use shredded cheddar in this dish but you can use any type of cheese you want!
Tools To Make
You just need 1 basic tool and I’m sure you have it – a muffin tin! We’ll use a basic 12 cup muffin tin to bake these simple breakfast muffins in perfectly portioned bites!
Storing Tips
Store these flavorful keto breakfast muffins in an airtight container in the fridge. You can eat them cold, or warm them up – the choice is yours!
Can You Freeze Them?
Yes! This easy egg muffins recipe is a perfect candidate for baking and freezing. After they’re cool, simply store them in an airtight bag or container in the freezer.
Take a few out to thaw the night before, or take them straight from freezer to toaster oven for a warm breakfast in no time! You can also warm them in the microwave or oven.
Serving Recommendations
These keto breakfast muffins are super versatile, with creamy, salty flavors that are easy to complement.
Eat them with a side of guacamole or a dollop of pesto (pesto eggs are amazing!), over a slice of toasted keto bread.
Keto Breakfast Muffins Recipe Variations
Want to shake up the recipe on these keto breakfast muffins? Check out my tips!
- Turn this into a keto breakfast casserole buy lining a 9″ pie pan with bacon, the adding whisked eggs and cheese to the center.
- Add some veggies! My favorite subtle low carb veggies are spinach and kale — you’ll just want to cook the water out of them before adding them in (check out my crustless spinach quiche or my kale quiche for tips).
- Swap the bacon for another type of meat, such as prosciutto, shaved chicken, or roast beef.
- Add some HEAT… by mixing in your favorite spices. Or top them with your favorite hot sauce.
- Get fancy with your cheese. Try swiss like in my keto quiche or mozzarella like in this crustless quiche Lorraine!
- Use egg whites, check out my egg white muffins or egg white bites for tips.

- Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 F.
- Coil a piece of bacon along the bottom and up the sides of each muffin tin.

- Sprinkle the bacon (12 slices) with cheese (1 cup).
- Crack an egg (12) into each muffin tin.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Bake for another 10-12 minutes, or until the eggs are set in the center to your liking. Enjoy!
