Creamy Keto Skillet Eggs Recipe

I’m not so sure how you feel about eggs, but they can get pretty boring if you eat them every day and don’t change it up a bit.  I love eggs but I need variety!  I’ve got the perfect solution for you and guess what???  It’s fairly easy to make too!  The best part is the whole family loves it and it’s Keto friendly!  Talk about a win-win for everyone.  The little one even said, “Mom, please make this every day because I love it!”  Gosh, I love when they request food that is really good for them.  My heart nearly melted.

If you’ve followed me for any amount of time you will know that I love, love, love my cast iron skillets.  The longer I have and use this pan the better it gets.  It’s one of the only pans that I probably won’t ever have to replace.  This recipe is perfect for them!  If you don’t have a cast iron skillet, I would love to encourage you to invest in one.  They are fairly inexpensive and worth every penny!  They have many different Cast Iron Pan sizes here on Amazon or if you are lucky, you might be able to score one still in stock at your local Walmart too.  (Although Walmart does carry a limited variety of sizes)

If you don’t have a cast iron skillet, make sure you use a pan that you can start off cooking on the stove top and end up cooking in the oven.  Don’t use a pan with a plastic handle.

For this recipe, I used my 10-inch cast iron skillet.  It is just the right size for the creamy eggs to sit in the gravy and it holds 8 eggs nicely.  You could easily add two more eggs to this recipe in this size pan but if you needed to make this breakfast meal for a bigger crowd, I would use a bigger skillet.  This is why I have a few different sizes!

The key to the success of this recipe is the flavors we used.  I used fresh parsley and fresh dill.  Thankfully my little Cinder Block Garden provides me with lovely fresh herbs because buying them in the store is crazy expensive for a very small amount.  I love the fact that I can go in my backyard and pick off exactly what I need when I need it without wasting any.

Creamy Keto Skillet Eggs Recipe Ingredients

• 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 8 to 10 large eggs
• 2 tbs fresh parsley
• 1 tbs fresh dill
• 4 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled

Creamy Keto Skillet Eggs Recipe Instructions

1. Set the oven to 375 degrees
2. Start by pouring a small amount of olive oil in the cast iron skillet.
3. Pour the heavy whipping cream, salt, and pepper into the skillet and bring it to a simmer over low to medium heat stirring it constantly.
4. Add the fresh parsley and fresh dill.
5. Once the cream mixture has started to simmer, turn off the heat.  The cream mixture will start to thicken at this point.
6. Crack each egg and place it directly into the hot cream mixture.
7. Place the creamy Keto skillet eggs in the oven to bake until the yolks are baked to your desired consistency.  I baked them for about 8 minutes.
8. Remove them from the oven and sprinkle with cooked bacon crumbles.
9. Serve it warm and enjoy!

I wanna say this recipe only took about 15 to 20 minutes from start to finish.  It is a super easy recipe that packs a flavorful punch when you need a new twist on breakfast!  Try it!  I’m certain you will enjoy it as much as my family does.
