    What Can I Eat For Breakfast on Keto?

    Besides eggs, some popular keto breakfast options include bacon, ham, nut butters, nuts, low-carb bread, and dishes made with almond flour or coconut flour. Coffee and various teas are great hot drinks to enjoy with a keto breakfast. 

    Can I Eat Oats / Oatmeal on Keto?

    Yes! Pure, raw (not pre-cooked) oatmeal is a great source of resistant starch. It’s also an important component of the keto diet. A 1/4 cup of raw oatmeal has about 12g of carbs.

    How Many Eggs Can I Eat on Keto?

    Because of their very low carb count of just 1 carb per serving, eggs are a great option for the keto diet. Whether you’re eating an omelette for breakfast or snacking on boiled eggs throughout the day, you can beat the convenience and versatility of eggs.

    The amount of eggs you eat is up to you, as long as you stay within your daily carb counts. Some people follow an egg fast for 3 to 5 days to help them enter ketosis or to accelerate weight loss. The foods allowed on an egg fast diet are mainly eggs (at least six whole eggs per day), cheese and butter. It’s important to know that egg fast diets are considered to be extreme, and very low in nutrients.

    Ingredients 

    • Non-stick cooking spray (It’s important to use non-stick cooking spray, as the regular oil spray won’t prevent eggs from sticking.)
    • 12 large eggs
    • 1 cup cooked bacon crumbled
    • 1 cup fresh baby spinach roughly chopped
    • 1 cup red bell pepper diced
    • ½ cup onions diced
    • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

    Instructions 

    How to cook egg muffins:

    • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with non-stick oil spray and set aside.
    • Wash, dry and dice red bell pepper and onions. Dry spinach and chop it roughly.
    • Add cooked bacon, red bell pepper, onions and spinach in each muffin tin, about 2/3 full. (Divide evenly among greased muffin cups.)
    • In a large measuring cup, whisk eggs and season with salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
    • Add in the egg mixture and fill each muffin tin 3/4 full. Sprinkle cheddar cheese on top.
    • Bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
    • As soon as you take the muffins out from the oven, run a small spatula around the edges of each muffin to loosen.
    • Remove them from the muffin tin. Serve warm immediately or freeze for meal prep.

    How to freeze egg muffins:

    • Let baked egg muffins cool down completely.
    • Wrap them in plastic wrap individually and place them in a freezer-safe zip-lock bag. (They’ll last for up to 3 months when stored properly in the freezer.)

    Notes

    • You can also use paper liners instead of cooking spray to prevent the egg muffins from sticking to the muffin tin.
