Directions for Keto Sausage Egg and Cheese Bites
Preparing the Bites:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or line with silicone muffin liners.
- Cook Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, and bell peppers. Add any optional add-ins if desired.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Baking the Bites:
- Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and golden brown on top.
- Cool and Remove: Allow the bites to cool in the tin for a few minutes before removing them. Serve warm.
Serving:
- Serve: These bites can be enjoyed on their own or paired with a side of avocado, a dollop of sour cream, or a fresh green salad for a more complete meal.
