Starting the day with a healthy breakfast is essential for everyone, but it’s particularly true if you are on a low-carb or keto diet.

These more than 50 delicious keto breakfast ideas will show you that you can eat something good, filling, and low in carbs.

Cottage Cheese Breakfast

A healthy keto breakfast requires a good balance of ingredient, just like keto dessert recipes, keto side dishes.

What Are Keto Breakfasts?

The best keto breakfast ideas are all these recipes that provide a combination of healthy fat and protein as well as vitamins and minerals.

They are made to keep you full until lunch without bringing too many carbs.

Low-carb breakfast ideas are dishes made with keto-friendly ingredients such as:

  • Eggs
  • Nuts
  • Berries such as blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries.
  • Low-carb vegetables such as bell pepper, lettuce, or kale
  • Dairy products such as cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, Greek yogurt, or heavy cream.
  • Low-carb spread and sauce such as Keto Nutella, Keto Jam Recipe, Peanut Butter, or sugar-free maple syrup.
  • Non-dairy milk, like unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk, or oat milk.

Easy Keto breakfast recipes typically avoid:

  • Potatoes (hash, hashbrown, puree)
  • Classic Cereal (often loaded in sugar)
  • Classic Bread
  • Jam, Chocolate Spread

How To Make Keto Breakfast Recipes

Most keto breakfast recipes are either quick recipes made in a few minutes in a frying pan or microwave oven, or they are meal-prep recipes that make a large batch and cooked in the oven.

Ingredients

Let’s take the example of a featured keto breakfast recipe: Cottage Cheese Omelette to describe how a keto recipe idea can be made.

  • EggsEggs are fantastic for a keto breakfast as they are rich in fat, protein, and very low in carbs.
  • Salt and Pepper – Seasoning is essential to enjoy a good breakfast.
  • Cottage Cheese – Cottage cheese, like most dairy products is keto friendly as it contains almost no carbs.
  • Italian Seasoning
  • Butter – Butter is keto-friendly.
  • Baby Spinach Leaves – Spinach, like many other keto-friendly vegetables is amazing to bring vitamins and nutrients.
  • Garlic Cloves
  • Olive Oil
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • Green Onion

Instructions

Making keto breakfast recipes is, most of the time, something that can be done in a matter of minutes.

This featured omelet, for example, is made by combining the omelette ingredients in a bowl, cooking it on a frying pan with olive oil, and adding the filling ingredients when the omelet is ready.

Storage Instructions

Most keto breakfast ideas can be stored in the fridge for a few days when they are cooked, as long as they are kept in an airtight container.

Some can also be frozen, in particular larger batch options like keto breakfast casseroles or quiches.
