If you have my first book, Simply Keto, then you know that my daughter and husband love pizza! Once we perfected personal keto pizzas, we decided to try our hand at low carb keto pizza egg cups. This combo is not only delicious, but it’s also quick and super easy to prepare. These are great for meal prepping for breakfast, but you can also have them as a quick snack on the go. Who says you can’t have pizza for breakfast?!
Packed full of your favorite pizza flavors, this recipe is quick and simple to make. It’s also a fun one to make! Have the kids join in and help. Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees. Coat 4 wells of a standard-sized muffin tin with cooking spray.
Line pepperoni in a single layer on the bottom and sides of one of the wells in the muffin tin. How many pieces of pepperoni it will take depends on the size of pepperoni. Each muffin till will take about about 4-6 standard/medium sized slices, or 3 large slices – about half an ounce. Repeat this in the three other prepared wells.
Next, crack an egg into each cup, being careful not to break the yolk. Top each egg with 1 teaspoon of marinara sauce. Sprinkle each egg with oregano, salt and pepper. Finally, place ½ slice of cheese on top of each egg.
Baking time will depend on how you like your eggs. Bake 12-13 minutes for runny yolks, 13-14 minutes for soft yolks, and 15-16 minutes for hard yolks.
Your keto pizza egg cups are now ready to enjoy!
