    This recipe is highly customizable, so you can change out the type of cheese, peppers and even the ham.  You can make whatever combination you like, maybe bacon instead of ham, or sausage. Simply use what you have on hand to make it easy!

    This gluten-free breakfast casserole also freezes beautifully! So if you have extra portions leftover, you can freeze them for later.

    • Diced ham
    • Shredded cheddar cheese
    • Heavy cream

    *Exact measurements are listed in the recipe card below.

    What's in Easy Breakfast Casserole?

    This healthy low carb breakfast is hands down, one of my easiest recipes!  You'll only need 6 ingredients plus salt & pepper!  Start by preheating your oven to 350F.

    Add in the eggs, heavy cream, salt and pepper into a large mixing bowl and mix using a Hand Mixer for about 2 minutes, until combined and fluffy.

    Stir in the ham, peppers, onions and a little less than half of the shredded cheese.

    Pour the mixture into a 9" x 13" casserole baking dish that's been sprayed with nonstick spray.

    Top with the remaining cheese and bake for 25-30  minutes or until the eggs have set and the cheese is golden and bubbly.

    Tips for Making Easy Keto Breakfast Casserole

    • Use what you have-If you've made a ham for a special occasion or holiday dinner like Christmas or Resurrection Sunday, you might have some leftover ham to use up. This breakfast casserole will put that leftover ham to great use! But if you're craving this casserole and don't have leftovers to use, you can used shredded chicken, ground sausage or even hamburger meat.

    • Make it in advance-If you know you're going to be short on time, mix up all the ingredients and store in the fridge up to 24 hours in advance. You can just pour it in your casserole dish when you're ready to bake it.
    • Cheese of your choice- I use shredded cheddar cheese, but you can substitute with any cheese that melts easily, like Monterey Jack or Colby.
    white bowl with mini red peppers
    • Add you favorite veggies-I found these sweet little mini red bell peppers at the grocery store and decided to use them in the recipe as well. You can sub with any pepper you like, green, yellow or orange bell pepper, or even jalapeño pepper.

    What's really great about casseroles, is they are super easy to put together and can often be made ahead of time!  They're great for meal prep, because they often make a fair number of servings.  Most often they freeze really well, which can be a great time saver!

        You can use just about any Keto friendly veggie that you like. Depending on what you use, you might have to precook it, before adding it into the casserole.

        The best way is in an airtight container or food saver bags.
