Keto Ham and Egg Cups 🍳🥓
I tried this easy keto trick for meal prep, and now I always have delicious, healthy meals ready to go. No more stress!
Ingredients
- 6 slices of ham (thinly sliced, keto-friendly)
- 6 large eggs
- ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Chopped chives or parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 6-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray or olive oil.
- Line Cups: Place a slice of ham in each muffin cup, pressing to form a “cup.”
- Egg Mixture: Whisk eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until combined.
- Assemble: Pour egg mixture into ham cups, filling about ¾ full. Sprinkle cheese on top.
- Bake: Bake 15–18 minutes until eggs are set and cheese is melted and golden.
- Serve: Cool slightly, garnish with chives or parsley, and enjoy warm.
Why It’s Keto-Friendly
- Ham is high in protein and low in carbs.
- Eggs provide healthy fats, protein, and essential nutrients.
- Heavy cream and cheese add creaminess and satiating fats.
