Allergens

Ingredients

  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 lb spicy pork sausage
  • 3 medium avocados, sliced
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add sausage and cook until browned, breaking it into smaller pieces as it cooks. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt butter and add almond flour. Cook for 2 3 minutes until golden brown, stirring constantly to avoid burning.

  6. In a separate bowl, beat eggs with salt and pepper. Pour them over the sausage and sauce mixture in the skillet. Gently stir to combine.
  7. Cook for 4 5 minutes or until the eggs are set but still slightly runny.
  8. Top with sliced avocado and green onions, then sprinkle with cheddar cheese. Cover and let sit for 2 3 minutes until the cheese melts.
  9. Remove from heat, serve immediately, and enjoy your cinematic keto Southern breakfast skillet!
