HEALTHY SAVORY BREAKFAST COOKIES – FREEZABLE LOW CARB BREAKFAST!

 This recipe made a batch of 12 sizable cookies. I would eat two for breakfast personally. There are only 2.9g of carbs per cookie and 8.2g protein so to me that’s a decent breakfast.

INGREDIENTS

• 4 oz pork sausage
• 1/2 cup onion, chopped
• 1/2 cup green peppers, chopped
• 3/4 cups almond flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. Saute sausage, onions and peppers until the sausage is browned and the vegetable soft. Take off heat and let cool.
3. In the meantime add almond flour, salt, pepper and baking powder to a bowl and mix.
4. In a separate bowl beat eggs, then add 1/2 cup of the cheese. Add to the flour mixture and mix well.
5. Add cooled sausage mixture and mix to combine.
6. Place a piece of parchment paper or a silicone mat on a large cookie sheet.
7. Place a big spoonful of mixture as you would to make cookies. Dough is sticky so try to use the spoon as well you can.
8. Press down gently on each cookie to flatten a little. Sprinkle remainingcheese on top and bake for 8-10 minutes.
9. Store in the refrigerator or freezer.
