Ingredients for this Keto Breakfast Casserole

Base of this egg casserole

Eggs. We’re using 8 eggs for this recipe.

Cream. I used heavy cream but you can use whole milk, almond milk, oat milk, or whatever your favorite milk is!

Spices. Just some salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

You can use whatever combination of veggies, cheeses, and meats depending what you’re in the mood for and what you have in your fridge!

For this recipe I used:

Pepper. I used a red bell pepper, cut into small pieces.

Onion. Delicious sweet onion, chopped up!

Sausage. For this recipe I used breakfast sausage, but if you have chicken sausage or turkey sausage, you can cut it into rounds or smaller pieces.

Cheese. For this recipe we’re using some shredded cheddar and pepper jack.

How to make this Keto Breakfast Casserole

Step 1.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, and spices. Set aside.

Step 2.

In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the peppers and onions with some avocado oil. Sauté for the peppers and onions for about 5 minutes until the onions soften and are slightly browned. Add the sausage to the pan, use a spatula to break up the sausage and continue to stir until it’s cooked.

Step 3.

Add the sausage, peppers, and onion to the bowl with the egg mixture along with the cheese. Fold until everything is incorporated.

Step 4.

Transfer the egg mixture to a casserole dish and bake for 35 minutes.
