Keto Denver Omelet Cups

Keto Denver Omelet Cups are low carb, gluten-free mini muffin pan version of a favorite classic omelet with ham, cheese, bell peppers, onions, and chives.

Keto Denver Omelet Cups are baked in a muffin tin for easy portion control and portability. 

We love to make these in advance and store in the fridge or the freezer so we can quickly reheat a couple in the morning for a fast breakfast on the go.

Preparing a classic Denver omelet early in the morning can take some time and effort. If  you make these omelet cups in advance over the weekend, then you will have 12 omelet cups to quickly reheat on busy weekday mornings.

These are low in carbs, and the serving size is 2 of the omelet muffins to keep you full and satisfied for the whole morning.

The omelet cups can also be stored in the freezer and reheated for only a little longer before serving.
