Hey there, breakfast lovers! 🍳 Let me share my absolute favorite keto-friendly breakfast that’ll make you forget all about those carb-loaded pancakes you used to love. Trust me, this Bacon-Wrapped Avocado Egg Boats will have your taste buds doing a happy dance!
Y’all, I discovered this recipe during my keto journey, and let me tell you – it’s been a game-changer. My husband, who usually turns his nose up at “diet food,” literally begs me to make these now. _hair flip_
What You’ll Need:
– 2 ripe avocados
– 4 large eggs
– 6 bacon strips
– Salt and pepper to taste
– A pinch of red pepper flakes (because who doesn’t like it a little spicy?)
– 2 tablespoons of fresh chives
– A sprinkle of shredded cheddar (optional, but like, why wouldn’t you?)
Now, let’s get cooking, gorgeous!
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). While that’s heating up, cut your avocados in half and remove those pits. Pro tip: If your avocados are a bit wobbly, slice a tiny bit off the bottom to help them sit flat. Nobody likes a tipsy breakfast!
1. Here’s where the magic happens – scoop out a bit more avocado from each half to make room for your egg. Don’t throw away that extra avocado though! Save it for your coffee break snack (or just eat it right then, I won’t judge 😉).
1. Wrap each avocado half with bacon. This part is like giving your breakfast a warm, crispy hug!

1. Carefully crack an egg into each avocado bowl. If you’re fancy, you can crack the egg into a small bowl first to ensure no shells get in there. But hey, we’re all friends here – sometimes I live dangerously and crack it straight in!
1. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Pop these babies in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking. I like mine with slightly runny yolks because watching that golden goodness ooze out is basically food poetry.
1. Once they’re done, sprinkle with chives and cheese if you’re using it. And voilà! You’ve got yourself a breakfast that’s not only Instagram-worthy but also keeps you in ketosis. Win-win!
Each boat packs about 22g of fat, 15g of protein, and only 2g net carbs. Plus, it’ll keep you full until lunch, which means no more sneaking to the break room for Karen’s birthday donuts!
