Low Carb Breakfast Cheesy Egg Bacon Casserole
Last weekend I attended a ladies conference at my church Thursday – Saturday so I needed an easy breakfast option each morning. I knew I wouldn’t have time to make anything and wanted to make sure my breakfast was hearty and filling since I wasn’t sure when I’d be able to eat again. Keto Biscuits and Sausage Ball Puffs are two of my favorite breakfast options, but I was out of sausage. So, I decided to turn my Keto Biscuit recipe into this low carb breakfast cheesy bacon and egg casserole. I was really pleased with how it turned out. It was so easy to pop a piece in the microwave in the mornings before we left for a nice homemade breakfast.
Low Carb Breakfast Casserole
I prefer using coconut flour since it works best for our family needs. You could potentially use almond flour for the biscuit portion of this recipe if you prefer. Just play with the measurements a bit to make sure it gives you the consistency you desire.
Using shredded cheddar is my preference since I always have it on hand, but you can pick any cheese. There are tons of hard cheese varieties that offer great flavor while remaining low carb and ketogenic friendly.
