Recipe: Keto Mini Pizza Egg Bakes

Ingredients:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free marinara sauce
  • 1/4 cup sliced pepperoni (or your preferred keto-friendly pizza toppings)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray (for greasing the muffin tin)

Instructions:

1. Preheat and Prepare:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 6-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
2. Mix the Eggs:
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Assemble the Mini Pizza Egg Bakes:
  • Place a spoonful of sugar-free marinara sauce at the bottom of each muffin cup, creating a thin base.
  • Divide the sliced pepperoni evenly among the muffin cups on top of the sauce.
  • Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the pepperoni.
4. Pour and Bake:
  • Carefully pour the egg mixture over the toppings in each muffin cup, filling them about 2/3 full.
5. Bake:
  • Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the mini pizza egg bakes are set and slightly golden on top. You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into one of the mini bakes; if it comes out clean, they’re ready.
6. Cool and Serve:
  • Allow the mini pizza egg bakes to cool for a few minutes in the muffin tin before using a butter knife to gently loosen the edges and remove them.
