Keto Baked Egg Stuffed Peppers
Keto Baked Egg Stuffed Peppers, keto low carb diet friendly recipe that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even appetizer.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 Red Bell Peppers - see post for prep
- ½ tbsp Olive Oil - or as needed
- ½ cup Mozzarella Cheese - shredded
- 4 Eggs
Seasonings as desired.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 and prep a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the peppers by slicing them in half and removing the seeds etc on the inside. Using a scoop or large spoon can help. Then place the peppers with the cut side up onto the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the peppers as well as any desired seasonings. Bake the peppers until they begin to get soft- about 10-15 minutes.
- Remove the peppers from the oven and sprinkle the cheese onto each pepper. Then carefully crack open an egg over each pepper. Top with optional seasonings and add-ins. Then return the peppers to the oven and bake until the eggs have been cooked through (18-20 minutes). Serve immediately as this dish tastes best when served fresh.
Recipe Notes
I mentioned that baking the individual stuffed pepper in muffin cups is one method of making the stuffed peppers easier to serve. Placing those muffin cups into a muffin tin first can also be an idea to try.
Also mentioned, adding additional toppings can make this recipe even better.
For a more 'breakfast or brunch' approach, you could add precooked and chopped breakfast meat.
However, adding chopped green onions or serving with taco-style toppings can add both color and flavor to these stuffed peppers. *Please check the nutritional labels to assure that you are sticking to your diet restrictions for any substitutions used. - see post for alternatives
