Tips for the meal-prep Keto breakfast recipe
- Let the egg muffins cool before packing them to prevent condensation inside the containers.
- Keep the berries, almonds, and cheese separate from the egg muffin for the best texture.
- Customize the egg muffins with other low-carb vegetables, cheese, or cooked breakfast meats you have on hand.
- No muffin pan? Bake the egg mixture in a greased baking dish, then cool and cut it into portions.
How and how long to store the keto breakfast leftovers
You can keep the ingredients for the Keto diet breakfast separated until ready to make your lunch box. The egg muffins can be made in advance and kept refrigerated for up to 3 days in an airtight container. They might not be as crisp as when they come from the oven but will still be super delicious!
