For the Cookie Base

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Savory Keto Breakfast Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, add your pork sausage, chopped onions, and green peppers. Sauté for about 5–7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sausage is browned and the vegetables are tender.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk gently to ensure even distribution.
  4. In another bowl, beat the eggs until well combined. Then, mix in half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
  5. Pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the cooled sausage mixture.
  6. Scoop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheet, leaving space between each scoop. Press down slightly to form shapes and sprinkle remaining cheese on top.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown. Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes.
  8. Remove from oven and let them cool briefly on the cookie sheet before transferring to a cooling rack.
