👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Preparation

1. Cook the Bacon

Fry the bacon until crisp. Transfer it to paper towels to drain, then allow it to cool before chopping.

2. Make the Batter

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and black pepper.

Stir in the shredded cheddar and chopped bacon. Add green onions if desired.

3. Shape the Bites

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Scoop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared tray and gently flatten each portion.

4. Bake

Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the bites are golden and set.

Allow them to cool briefly before serving.

✨ Tips for Success

  • Choose good-quality bacon for a flavorful result.
  • Sharp cheddar provides a stronger flavor than mild cheddar.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the texture light.
  • Allow the cooked bacon to cool before adding it to the mixture to prevent excess grease.
  • If the mixture seems too dry, add a spoonful of cream cheese.
