US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Heat Up The Oven to 200C or 400F
Fully clean all brussel sprouts and cut the ends and outer layer leaves.
Blanch Brussel sprouts in the boiling water for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Once they’re blanched, run them through the cold water. Place cooked Brussel Sprouts aside and move onto the next step.
If your bacon is raw, you can quickly fry it into bits in this step.
Prepare a bowl where you can mix all of the wet ingredients as well as half of the grated cheese.
Break the eggs and mix them a little bit into a soft fluffiness as you see on the video. Season it with salt and pepper, add sour cream, and mix again.
Once all is fully mixed add grated cheese and mix it once again.
Pick any of the cups you would like for baking either a single-serve baking dish, mini casseroles, mugs, or cups, which are heat resistant and will not crack in the oven.
Fill each of the cups with egg and cheese mixture halfway. Add one spoon of bacon bits into each cup.
Place into the oven and bake it for 20 minutes at 200C or 400F.
Once the Keto Brussel Sprouts Cups are baked, take all of the cups out of the oven and let them cool down a little bit. What you will see is the mixture has grown double in size. Do not worry as this will flatten after they cool a little bit.
Wait until they flatten and cool down and add chives and on top grated cheese. Place Brussel Sprout in the middle, on top of each cup.
Place all of the mini casseroles once again into the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.

Notes

Trim Brussel Sprouts - cut the end and outer leaves as those have a pretty harsh taste

Blanch the Brussel Sprouts - It is good to blanch Brussel sprouts before baking them - this will make them tender on the outside but nice and soft on the inside

Grated Cheese - Make sure your cheese is grated at home and not store-bought one. Most of the grated cheese directly from the supermarket contains starch to prevent cheese from sticking together but adds carbohydrates. It’s very easy to buy a block of cheese and grate it on your own at home.

Baking Cups - Pick any of the cups you would like for baking either a single-serve baking dish, mini casseroles, mugs, or cups, which are heat resistant and will not crack in the oven.
