INGREDIENT NOTES:

ALMOND FLOUR:

  • Utilize almond- or coconut-flour-based keto English muffins. They have low-carb content and should be firm enough so they don’t get soggy with the toppings.

EGGS:

  • It adds structure to these muffins. It provides a nice base and protein content. We have to lightly whisk to keep the soft texture.

HEAVY CREAM:

  • Use the heavy cream to add a rich taste to the dish. It adds moisture so the eggs don’t get dry. Use the coconut cream as a substitute if required.

MOZZARELLA CHEESE:

  • We use the mozzarella cheese as it melts smoothly in the recipe. It keeps the carbs low and fat content high and provides the best texture.

CHEDDAR CHEESE:

  • It adds a strong flavor to the filling and additional fat content. It enriches the taste of these muffins. Use the mild or medium cheddar if you don’t want the strong taste.

BACON:

  • Use the keto bacon of beef or turkey, which doesn’t contain any sugar content. Cook the bacon till crisp to boost their texture & flavor.

BUTTER:

  • Use the butter to improve the richness of the eggs. It also cooks the eggs and boosts the fat content. Use the olive oil instead as a dairy-free alternative.

SALT:

  • Salt will boost the flavor of the entire recipe & will stabilize the rich flavor. Add the quantity of salt according to your requirement.

BLACK PEPPER:

  • Black peppers add a slight spice to these muffin breakfast pizzas. Use the freshly ground black pepper to provide a good aroma and taste.

OPTIONAL COMPONENTS:

  • Add the additional mushrooms or spinach in the muffins in a small amount to manage the carb content. Sauté them first to remove the extra moisture.
