| Low Carb Breakfast Cups |
I always feel like I'm rushing around my home in the mornings. Trying to find uniforms, chasing down giggling toddlers and donning a diaper on a squirming baby. Our typical breakfast is usually just cereal. Boring.
When we DO have time for a wholesome meal, I like to stray from the typical pancakes and eggs breakfast plate. Although I love experimenting with breakfast foods, I still love my pancakes smeared with peanut butter!
I've been using my muffin pans to make new breakfast treats lately. Here is one of the recipes. I can't remember where I've seen it, so if you made it, then claim it!
These breakfast cups are incredibly easy to assemble and are low carb. They could also be used as an appetizer for brunch! I hope you enjoy!!
