Keto Cheesy Chorizo Egg Bites
This recipe was inspired by Lilly at Instrupix and included in our Top 10 Keto Snack Recipes of 2018 roundup.
Sick of munching on nuts and cheese sticks?
Then make these Keto Cheesy Chorizo Egg Bites – and turn a country breakfast into your keto on-the-go snack.
These snacks are rich and satisfying. They keep well and are great to make ahead early in the week.
You can use Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage, but we like Chorizo for an extra-savory mexican twist.
Keep these cheesy puffs on hand and you’ll never have to worry about hunger between meals.
Enjoy!

I made these and they were perfect. Can I freeze them in my food saver?
I see that the recipe was incomplete so I modified it by adding an extra tablespoon of coconut flour.. I added all the spices in egg, butter and sour cream mixture. I used a mini muffin tin pan, sprayed with olive oil and they came out perfect. Side note, I used garlic pepper, sea salt, onion powder and jalapeño salt. I also used a paper towel and dabbed the chorizo to take out excess grease. They’re delicious!
Can I substitute Almond flour instead of coconut flour?
Mine don’t look like the picture. They are flat. Will cook in muffin tin next time.
Just finished making these tastey bites; the directions are incomplete…..does not say to add items ie salt; garlic powder. Also found too wet to roll so dropped by spoonfuls and only made 23…..so maybe correct the directions. Taste is great!!
