Ingredient Overview: What You’ll Need

Eggs (2–3 large)

The fluffy base of your omelette. Rich in vitamins, protein, and healthy cholesterol.

Bacon (2–3 strips)

Crispy, smoky, and salty. Adds crunch and fat. Use nitrate-free bacon if possible.

Avocado (½ small)

Mashed or sliced, avocado adds creaminess, fiber, and a dose of potassium—perfect for keto balance.

Cheese (¼ cup)

Optional, but recommended. Cheddar, Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or goat cheese all work well. Adds melt and richness.

Heavy Cream (1 tbsp, optional)

Whisk into eggs for extra fluff and fat.

Butter or Ghee (1 tbsp)

For cooking the eggs. Adds flavor and helps prevent sticking.

Salt & Pepper

Basic seasoning. Add garlic powder or smoked paprika for an extra kick.

How to Make a Keto Avocado and Bacon Stuffed Omelette

1. Cook the Bacon

  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy.

  • Transfer to paper towels to drain, then chop or crumble.

2. Prepare the Eggs

  • In a bowl, whisk 2–3 large eggs with 1 tbsp heavy cream, salt, and pepper.

  • Beat until slightly frothy for a fluffy omelette.

3. Heat the Skillet

  • Add 1 tbsp butter to a nonstick skillet over medium heat.

  • Once melted and foamy, pour in the egg mixture.

  • Swirl the pan to distribute evenly.

4. Cook the Eggs

  • Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 20–30 seconds.

  • Gently push the edges toward the center with a spatula, letting uncooked egg flow to the sides.

  • Continue until the top is just slightly wet.

5. Add Fillings

On one half of the omelette, layer:

  • ¼ cup shredded cheese (if using)

  • Crumbled bacon

  • Sliced or mashed avocado

Let sit for 20 seconds so the cheese melts slightly.

6. Fold & Finish

  • Carefully fold the omelette in half over the fillings.

  • Cook another 30–60 seconds until the center is warm and cheese is melted.

7. Plate and Serve

Slide onto a plate and garnish with:

  • Chopped chives

  • Cracked pepper

  • Optional: sour cream, salsa, or hot sauce

Tips, Variations & Substitutions

Tips for a Fluffy Omelette

  • Use heavy cream or a splash of almond milk for fluff.

  • Cook on medium to medium-low heat to avoid browning the eggs.

Variations

  • Spicy Southwest: Add jalapeños, pepper jack, and a pinch of cumin.

  • Goat Cheese & Herb: Use goat cheese and fresh herbs instead of cheddar.

  • Veggie-Loaded: Add sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or zucchini for fiber and nutrients.

Substitutions

  • No dairy? Skip cheese or use dairy-free cheese.
