Try these Bacon and Cheese Keto Egg Bites for an easy grab-and-go breakfast! Less than one net carb per bite, making them the perfect keto breakfast!

I was never very into meal prep, until recently. I used to think meal prep consists of the same — either having the same dish every day or making a lot of freezer meals, which never taste quite as good when reheated.

Instead of that method of meal prep, I like to stock my fridge with a couple tasty grab and go meals, usually breakfasts, just to make life easier.

Something like this Keto Lemon Chia Seed Pudding is absolutely perfect, and these Bacon and Cheese Keto Egg Bites are amazing. They are quick, easy, and have 6 very basic keto ingredients. The reheat beautifully and make a great breakfast or even lunch because the egg taste and texture is not overwhelming.

Ingredients in Keto Egg Bites

To make these cheese and bacon egg bites, you’ll need the following simple ingredients:

  • Eggs
  • Cream cheese
  • Cooked bacon
  • Shredded cheese
  • Coconut flour (or almond flour)
  • Baking powder

How to Make Bacon Egg Bites 

This oven baked egg bites recipe requires minimal prep work. Here’s an overview of how to make this recipe: 

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a medium size mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients. 
  3. Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes for the flour to absorb some of the moisture. 
  4. Spray a mini muffin pan with non-stick spray and fill each cavity about 3/4 full.
  5. Bake until golden brown and cooked through.

How Many Carbs Are in These Keto Egg Bites? 

These little bites come to 1.4g of carbs with 0.6g of fiber, making it a net of 0.8 net carbs per bite! 

Can I Freeze Egg Bites? 

Yes! Let cool completely, then freeze for up to 3 months in a freezer bag. When ready to eat, thaw overnight in the fridge or heat from frozen in the microwave. 

Tips for Making Homemade Egg Bites

  • I use a silicone mini muffin tin for this recipe. I think they are lifesavers because nothing ever sticks, the egg bites just pop right out and it is never a problem.
  • This recipe makes 24 very mini muffins packed with crispy bacon and lots of cheese! You can also use a regular sized muffin tin and get 12 muffins from this recipe, but you’ll need to adjust the cook time accordingly.
  • I like to use a mixture of cheddar and pepper jack for a bit of a kick, but sub in any of your favorites.

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  2. In a medium size mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients. Make sure to break up the cream cheese as you stir.
  3. Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes for the flour to absorb some of the moisture. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!
  4. Spray a regular mini muffin pan or use a silicone muffin pan (my recommendation) and fill each cup about 3/4 full.

Notes

Flour: Coconut flour OR almond flour may be used in equal amounts. Note that the nutrition listed is calculated with coconut flour.

Servings: I used a mini muffin pan and got 24 bites. If you use a regular sized muffin pan, you’ll likely get 12 egg muffins but will need to adjust the cook time.
