Low Carb Breakfast Recipes for Weekdays

Convenience is key on busy weekdays. These low carb breakfast recipes can be prepared in advance so all you must do is grab and go when every minute matters. You’ll also get a boost of nutrient-rich ingredients, such as chia seeds, hemp hearts, flax meal and pumpkin.

These muffins get their protein from whey protein, while pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice infuse them with flavor and instant espresso powder adds a little caffeine kick. You can make these muffins in advance and freeze them and reheat quickly for a muffin on the go.

Strawberry Shortcake Bar Breakfast Bowl

The hemp hearts in this breakfast bowl give it a mild, nutty flavor. Fresh strawberries complete the bowl with a dollop of creamy Greek yogurt, and a crunchy Atkins® Strawberry Shortcake bar as a garnish. You can throw together the ingredients the night before and then assemble your bowl quickly in the morning.

Low Carb Slow Cooker French Toast Casserole

You may have thought French toast was a thing of the past if you’re living a low carb lifestyle, but this low carb French toast casserole uses keto bread, eggs and heavy cream, and is infused with the flavors of sugar-free maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg and topped with a crumbly and crunchy streusel of pecans and butter. The bread mixture can be made in advance and refrigerated overnight, and then popped in the slow cooker in the morning for two hours at high or four hours at low.
