This English Muffin Recipe has less than 6 net carbs per serving and tastes better than store-bought muffins. If you're following a keto, low carb diet, or a 21 Day Fix Meal plan, you'll find this fits right in.

A Life Without Bread?

Since going low carb many years ago, I can't say there are many things I miss about bread and baked goods. The process of fat-adaption really helps with reducing cravings and hunger, so I rarely crave things like cookies, muffins or cake.

But breakfasts are different. I miss toast.

Because I love my morning toast so much, I started researching low carb bread. Honestly, most of it tastes pretty bad, and don't even get me started on keto bread, but I discovered this recipe based on an idea from a fitness influencer, and I thought it was brilliant.

Given that this recipe is higher in fat, one muffin, paired with some avocado or runny eggs will keep me full for 4 to 5 hours no problem! But here's the thing - once you've made it in the microwave, it's best to toast it.

Here’s what you need

This might call for a quick amazon shop for almond flour, psyllium husk, and baking powder, but trust me, it’s 100% worth it. You can skip the Everything But the Bagel Seasoning if you want, but it really does add a great flavor (I get mine at Trader Joes).

How to Make Keto English Muffins in the Microwave!

First, melt a teaspoon of coconut oil in a small bowl in the microwave (just 10 seconds should do it).

Now add all the dry ingredients.

Now add the egg and give it a stir.

Now put it in the microwave for 60 seconds. It will come out looking like this.

Now let it cool, then gently take it out of the bowl and cut it in half.

VERY IMPORTANT STEP - toast it. This is key.

Now make it all fancy and devour.

Want something super delicious and low carb to put on that English muffin?

Try my superfood nut butter, keto macadamia nut butter or perhaps some sugar-free raspberry compote (a fancy term for jam). Alternatively, you can just whip it up with a couple of eggs and garnish with fresh tomato and lettuce. So GOOD!
