Keto Egg Cups With Bacon Cheese Food

KETO EGG CUPS WITH BACON & CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375° F.
• Slice bacon into bite-sized pieces, then fry in a skillet until golden brown. Set aside to drain fat.
• Reserve 1 tbsp of the bacon grease and saute the onion and green peppers over medium heat until they are soft. Set aside to drain on a paper towel.
• In a medium-sized bowl, crack 10 eggs, then add heavy whipping cream, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, salt, and a dash of nutmeg. With a whisk, beat the eggs until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
• Combine the green peppers, onion, chopped spinach, and ¾ of the crumbled bacon in another bowl and distribute the filling amongst the muffin tins.
• Add the Monterey jack cheese to each cup, followed by the cheddar.
• Distribute the egg mixture evenly amongst each muffin tin.
• Top each cup with your reserved bacon. Then sprinkle parsley and red pepper flakes on top. *Optional
• Bake for approx 18-22 minutes or just until a knife comes out mostly clean. Make sure not to burn. I take them out before they turn brown. If you like them, "wet" undercook them a few minutes.
• They will puff up with steam as they bake but sink a bit when you take them out of the oven. That's normal!

KETO EGG CUPS

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Brush 6 standard muffin cups with the butter (the butter will pool on the bottom of the cups, but that's okay). Line each cup with a slice of prosciutto, folding and overlapping so that the entire surface of the cup is covered and no metal is peeking through. Divide the mozzarella evenly among the cups. Repeat with the Parmesan, spinach and roasted red pepper.
• Whisk the eggs and cream in a large measuring cup or small pitcher; add some salt and a few grinds of pepper. Pour the egg mixture in each cup, making sure not to overfill.
• Bake until the eggs are set and wobble only slightly, 10 to 12 minutes (the eggs will continue to cook after they come out). Let cool 5 minutes, then use an offset spatula to loosen the prosciutto from the edges of each cup and transfer to a plate for serving.
