Sausage, Egg & Cheese Coconut Flour Muffins image

This low carb muffin is a delicious breakfast option. The texture is more like eggs than a muffin but still tasty. Italian sausage and cheese add tons of flavor. We loved that the recipe makes exactly 6 muffins. A great meal prep option. Make these on Sunday and you'll have breakfast prepared for the week.

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 large eggs, at room temperature
2 tablespoon(s) coconut oil or butter, melted
3 tablespoon(s) coconut milk, unsweetened, at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
1/8 teaspoon(s) each: garlic powder, ground cumin, ground thyme
1/4 cup(s) coconut flour, sifted
1 cup(s) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 pound(s) mild italian sausage

Steps:

  • Cook sausage lightly, breaking into small crumbles. Set aside to cool.
  • Blend together egg, coconut oil or butter, coconut milk, salt, garlic powder, cumin and thyme.
  • Stir in coconut flour until no lumps remain.
  • Fold in 3/4 cup cheese and the sausage.
  • Fill 6 greased muffin cups with batter. Sprinkle tops of muffins with remaining cheese.
  • Bake at 400 degrees F. (205 c) for 15 minutes. High altitude: Move oven rack to the top level and bake at 375 F for 18 minutes.
  • Variation: Use chopped cooked bacon or spicy sausage in place of the mild sausage.
  • Note: There is no leavening in this recipe. The muffins will not rise, so you can fill the muffin cups to the top. Muffins are a little more dense than usual.
