Breakfast on a keto diet can be challenging; finding something satisfying, delicious, and also low in carbohydrates is no simple task.
Just because you’re following a keto diet doesn’t mean giving up all of the foods you love; try these tasty keto recipes that make eating keto easy and enjoyable.
1. Eggs
Eggs make an ideal breakfast food on the keto diet because they contain almost zero carbs while providing plenty of protein and fat. Whole or cracked, eggs play an integral part of a balanced diet because of their abundance of vitamins and minerals.
Scrambled eggs make an easy and quick breakfast choice that can be customized with whatever savory toppings your heart desires.
This Keto version of scrambled eggs features bacon and sausage, sauteed onions and peppers, perfectly cooked cheese and plenty of delicious low carb veggies – topped off with some sour cream, it makes an outstanding low-carb breakfast or lunch!
Mixing in some ham can turn an egg bake into an elegant brunch option or an easy Keto lunch option that can be prepared the night before and quickly heated back up for lunch on any given day.
2. French Toast
French toast is an easy breakfast treat made by dunking grain-free bread into an egg batter before frying it, often served with butter, preserves or syrup as toppings.
To create the classic French toast experience, all that’s required is an egg, milk (or half-and-half), spices and flavorings such as cinnamon or vanilla – for extra richness try adding both!
Butter or cooking oil should also be present in your pan in order to help the bread brown quickly and give a beautiful texture.
This quick, simple, and low-carb breakfast option is an ideal addition to any keto diet plan, taking only 10 minutes to create. Not to mention its incredible taste!
3. Waffles
Starting your day right is always great – and keto waffles make for the ideal breakfast choice!
Almond flour keto waffles make an excellent breakfast, or they make an ideal side with some butter and sugar-free maple syrup. Furthermore, waffles pair nicely with either almond or peanut butter, or sugar-free chocolate spread.
Serve these as dessert by topping with some low-carb ice cream – it’s an ideal way to boost fat and protein intake while still indulging.
4. Steak and Eggs
Steak and eggs make an easy keto breakfast recipe that’s low in carbs while being satisfying and high-protein meal.
Start your day right! Customize your steak and eggs dish with tasty toppings like chives, red pepper flakes or chimichurri herb sauce for maximum flavor.
While any cut of steak would work perfectly in this dish, my personal favorite is filet mignon! Its tender and succulent textures make for a truly irresistible bite!
Cooking this delectable dish correctly is key! For optimal results, grill or pan fry your steak until it reaches medium rare status.
After it is fully cooked, allow it to rest for several minutes before cutting and serving with fried eggs.
Eggs are packed with protein and can help you shed unwanted pounds. Plus, they contain important vitamins like B-12, E and K as well as small amounts of A, D3 and D5.
