3 Ingredient Bacon And Egg Breakfast Muffins – An Easy Meal To Prepare
Diets This Breakfast Muffins Recipe Will Work With:
LOW-FODMAP
A diet for those suffering from GI distress. A low-FODMAP diet excludes fermentable carbohydrates, which are carbs that are especially difficult for our bodies to digest. This diet can be helpful for those diagnosed with IBS, SIBO, candida, etc. If you want to find more details on FODMAPs, check out the post that I wrote.
PALEO
You may have heard of this one, especially since a majority of my recipes are considered “paleo-compliant.” The paleolithic (“paleo”) diet is one that focuses on whole, real food. Paleo-followers eat a diet that is high in vegetables, protein, healthy fats with some fruit, nuts, and seeds thrown in here and there. The diet is light on grains and sugar. Basically, saying you follow a paleo diet is a quick way of describing your emphasis on eating whole, unprocessed food.
KETO / LOW-CARB
A keto, or “ketogenic,” diet is one that is really high in fat, moderate in protein, and very low in carbs (generally accepted as about 25g net carbs per day). When eating a ketogenic diet, your body transitions from burning glucose (carbs) to burning ketones (fat) as fuel. Nutritional ketosis is being researched more regularly and studies are showing that this diet approach and nutritional ketosis can be greatly beneficial in a myriad of capacities. I think Dr. Dom D’Agostino describes it best on Tom Ferriss’ podcast.
WHOLE30
Whole30 is a popular diet plan that can be considered a stricter form of the paleo diet. This diet emphasizes the
GLUTEN-FREE
Another one you’re likely familiar with. This is a diet that restricts all forms of gluten: wheat, barley, and rye. Those that follow a gluten-free diet may do so for many different reasons. Those diagnosed with celiac disease must strictly eliminate gluten as its consumption leads to serious damage of the small intestine.
GRAIN-FREE
A grain-free diet eliminates all forms of grains: wheat, barley, rye, corn, oats, bran, etc. Those who follow a grain-free diet may do so if they experience trouble when digesting grains or, more seriously, they suffer from an autoimmune disease such as Crohn’s, colitis, or rheumatoid arthritis. As per Dr. Amy Myers, a grain-free diet can alleviate symptoms of those with autoimmune diseases as grains can lead to inflammation thereby causing an autoimmune response.
DAIRY-FREE
A diet free of dairy is a diet free of lactose. As we age, the body has a more challenging time breaking down lactose, the sugar found in dairy products. Dairy is found in milk, yogurt, and cream. More than 65 percent of people suffer from the inability to digest lactose.

3-Ingredient Bacon and Egg Breakfast Muffins
Ingredients
- 8 bacon slices
- 8 large eggs
- ⅔ cup chopped green onion, green stem only for low-FODMAP
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat muffin tin cavities with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large pan over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp. Transfer cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Allow bacon to cool slightly before chopping bacon (or breaking apart with your hands) into small pieces.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs together. Add bacon and chopped green onions and mix again until all ingredients are well-combined.
- Pour or ladle egg mixture into cavities of prepared muffin tin until each cavity is about halfway full (do not exceed this as the eggs in the muffins will expand as they bake and will overflow).
