🧁 Keto Maple Bacon Mini Quiches
Made with Keystone Pantry Allulose for that perfect touch of sweetness!
🥓 What You’ll Need:
For the Crust (Optional – or go crustless for even lower carbs):
-
1 cup almond flour
-
2 tbsp melted butter
-
¼ tsp garlic powder
-
Pinch of salt
For the Filling:
-
6 large eggs
-
¼ cup heavy cream
-
1 tsp vanilla extract (trust me)
-
1 tbsp Keystone Pantry Allulose (adjust to taste)
-
1 tbsp sugar-free maple syrup (or use a little maple extract)
-
½ cup shredded cheddar (or gouda if you’re feelin’ fancy)
-
4 strips thick-cut bacon, cooked crispy and chopped
-
2 tbsp finely diced onion (optional, for a savory kick)
-
Salt & pepper to taste
🥄 Instructions:
1. Prep Your Crust (Optional):
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Mix almond flour, melted butter, garlic powder, and salt in a bowl.
-
Press about a tablespoon of dough into the bottom of a greased muffin tin (silicone liners work great).
-
Bake for 8–10 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool slightly.
2. Make the Filling:
-
In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, vanilla, allulose, and maple syrup or extract.
-
Stir in cheese, bacon bits, and onion (if using). Season lightly with salt and pepper.
3. Assemble & Bake:
-
Pour filling over crusts (or directly into greased muffin cups if crustless), filling each about ¾ full.
-
Bake for 18–22 minutes, until set and golden on top. A toothpick should come out clean.
4. Cool & Serve:
-
Let cool for 5–10 minutes before removing from the tin. Serve warm or refrigerate for a quick grab-n-go meal!
💡 Tips & Add-Ons:
-
Add chopped spinach, diced bell pepper, or mushrooms for a veggie boost.
-
Sub in sausage or pancetta instead of bacon for a twist.
-
Want a little heat? A dash of cayenne or smoked paprika is 🔥.

FAQ – Keto Maple Bacon Mini Quiches
Q1: Can I make these quiches crustless?
A1: Absolutely! Omitting the almond flour crust lowers the carb count even further. Simply grease the muffin tin and pour the filling directly in.
Q2: Can I substitute the bacon with other proteins?
A2: Yes! Try diced sausage, pancetta, or even turkey bacon for a different flavor profile.
Q3: Can I make these ahead of time?
A3: Definitely. Bake, let cool, and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4–5 days. They also freeze well for up to a month.
Q4: Can I use a different cheese?
A4: Yes. Cheddar or Gouda works beautifully, but you can also experiment with mozzarella, Swiss, or a blend for extra flavor.
Q5: How can I make these more savory or add vegetables?
A5: Mix in spinach, bell peppers, mushrooms, or onions to boost nutrition and flavor.
Q6: Can I make them sweet or more “maple-forward”?
A6: You can increase Keystone Pantry Allulose or add a few extra drops of sugar-free maple syrup for a slightly sweeter bite.
Q7: What’s the best way to reheat these mini quiches?
A7: Reheat in a 325°F oven for 5–7 minutes, or microwave for 30–45 seconds until warmed through.
Q8: Are these keto-friendly?
A8: Yes! Using Keystone Pantry Allulose and optional almond flour crust keeps carbs very low while maintaining a deliciously rich flavor.
