Packed with pre-cooked ham, finely diced bell pepper, and onion, these savory muffins are a perfect blend of protein and vegetables.

Ingredients:
1/2 lb pre-cooked ham, diced (bacon or sausage can be substituted)
1 bell pepper, finely diced
1/2 onion, finely diced
10 eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 tbsp avocado oil (bacon fat can be used for added flavor)
Instructions:
Preheat Oven to Perfection: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F, ensuring the ideal temperature for achieving the perfect texture and flavor in our egg muffins.
Chop with Precision: Meticulously dice the pre-cooked ham, bell pepper, and onion to create bite-sized pieces that will be evenly distributed throughout each muffin, providing a burst of flavor in every bite.
Whisk and Mix with Finesse: Crack the eggs into a spacious bowl and whisk them to perfection. Add the meticulously chopped ingredients, along with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper each, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
Grease for Success: Ensure the muffin tin is generously coated with your preferred fat or oil, preventing any sticking issues during baking. Alternatively, opt for muffin tin liners for a hassle-free baking experience.
Spoonfuls of Culinary Art: Carefully spoon the egg mixture into each section of the muffin tin, filling them almost to the brim. Anticipate a delightful puffing up as they bake, promising an aesthetically pleasing presentation.
Bake to Perfection: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and let the magic happen for approximately 20 minutes. The result? A golden-brown exterior with a perfectly cooked, fluffy interior.
Cooling Elegance: Allow the egg muffins to cool slightly before serving, enhancing the overall texture and ensuring a delightful dining experience.

Two Ingredient Cloud Cake

by
Yields: 8-10 servings
Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 60-70 minutes
Ingredients:
For the Batter:
3 large eggs, separated (yolks and whites)
1/4 cup (56g) light cream cheese, softened (Philadelphia 1/3 less fat or similar)
1/4 cup (60ml) unsweetened almond milk or skim milk
2 tbsp (30g) unsalted butter (or light butter alternative, if available and suitable for baking)
1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour, sifted
1 tbsp (8g) cornstarch, sifted
1/4 tsp cream of tartar (optional, but helps stabilize egg whites)
1/2 cup (80g) erythritol or another granular sugar substitute equivalent to 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
For the Water Bath:
Boiling water
For Dusting (Optional):
1-2 tsp powdered erythritol or other powdered sugar substitute
Equipment:
8-inch round springform pan or cake pan with a removable bottom
Parchment paper
Aluminum foil
Large roasting pan (for water bath)
Electric mixer
Spatulas
Whisk
Instructions:
Prepare the Pan: Grease and flour your 8-inch springform pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper. For easy removal and to prevent water from seeping in during the water bath, wrap the outside of the pan securely with 2-3 layers of aluminum foil. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
Make the Cheese Base:
In a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (double boiler), combine the softened light cream cheese, unsweetened almond milk (or skim milk), and butter. Whisk constantly until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Remove from heat.
Whisk in the egg yolks one at a time until fully incorporated.
Sift in the flour and cornstarch into the mixture. Whisk until smooth and no lumps remain. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
Whip the Meringue:
In a very clean, dry bowl (preferably glass or metal), add the egg whites and cream of tartar (if using).
Using an electric mixer, start whipping the egg whites on medium speed until foamy.
Gradually add the erythritol (or sugar substitute) a little at a time while continuing to whip.
Increase the speed to high and whip until you achieve glossy, soft peaks. The to meringue should hold its shape but still be pliable. Do not over-whip to stiff peaks, as this can make the cake dry.
Combine the Batters:
Add about one-third of the meringue to the cheese base mixture. Gently fold it in with a spatula to lighten the batter.
Add the remaining meringue in two additions, gently folding until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the meringue; this is key to the soufflé texture. Overmixing will result in a dense cake.
Bake with Water Bath:
Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan. Gently tap the pan on the counter a few times to release any large air bubbles.
Place the springform pan into the larger roasting pan. Carefully pour boiling water into the roasting pan until it comes about 1 inch up the sides of the springform pan.
Carefully transfer the roasting pan to the preheated oven.
Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cake is set but still slightly wobbly in the center. An inserted skewer should come out with moist crumbs.
Cooling and Serving:
Once baked, turn off the oven and prop the oven door open slightly with a wooden spoon. Let the cheesecake cool in the oven for about 30-60 minutes. This slow cooling helps prevent the cake from deflating too much.
Remove the cake from the oven and the water bath. Carefully remove the aluminum foil. Let it cool completely on a wire rack before refrigerating for at least 2-3 hours (preferably overnight) to firm up.
Once chilled, carefully run a thin knife around the edge of the pan before releasing the springform.
Dust with powdered erythritol before serving, if desired.
Weight Watchers Point Considerations (Estimate):
Light Cream Cheese: Significantly lower in points than full-fat.
Unsweetened Almond Milk/Skim Milk: Very low or zero points.
Erythritol/Sugar Substitute: Zero points.
Butter: This is where some points will come from. Using a good quality light butter or a smaller amount if you can adjust, helps.
Flour & Cornstarch: These will contribute points.
Eggs: Points depend on the plan, but generally moderate.
To get accurate points for your specific cake, you would need to input all the exact ingredients and their quantities into your WW app and divide by the number of servings. For example, if the entire cake comes out to 30 points and you cut 10 slices, each slice would be 3 points.

🥞🔥 Carnivore Fluffy Pancakes

Forget flour and sugar—these Carnivore Fluffy Pancakes are a protein-packed, ultra-satisfying alternative that blow traditional pancakes out of the water. With a tender texture and buttery flavor, they’re ideal for low-carb, keto, and carnivore diets alike. Bonus: they’re quick to whip up and endlessly customizable with zero guilt.

📝 Ingredients (Base Version):

  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 oz cream cheese (or 1/2 cup, softened)
  • 2 tbsp beef gelatin (gives the “fluffy” texture – like flour!)
  • 1 tbsp butter or ghee (for cooking)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: splash of vanilla extract or cinnamon (for more flavor, if tolerated)

👨‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Blend the Batter
    • In a blender or mixing bowl, combine eggs, cream cheese, gelatin, and salt.
    • Blend or whisk until very smooth—no lumps. Let it sit for 2–3 minutes to activate the gelatin.
  2. Heat the Pan
    • Heat a nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add a small amount of butter or ghee.
  3. Cook the Pancakes
    • Pour small rounds of batter (about 3–4 inches wide) into the pan.
    • Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, flipping once bubbles form and the edges firm up.
    • Repeat until all batter is used.
  4. Serve & Enjoy!
    • Serve warm with a pat of butter, whipped cream cheese, or even bacon slices on top!

🍽️ Servings:

Makes 6–8 small pancakes (Serves 2)

🔍 Notes:

  • Beef gelatin is key for fluffiness! It mimics the structure that flour provides in regular pancakes.
  • You can double the batch and refrigerate the leftovers—great for meal prep.

💡 Tips:

  • For extra richness, separate the eggs and whip the egg whites until fluffy—fold into the batter for extra airy pancakes.
  • Want it sweeter (but still carnivore-ish)? Add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract.
  • Use a ring mold for perfect circular shapes and even thickness.
  • Make a savory version: add shredded cheese or crispy bacon bits to the batter!

  • Eggs & cream cheese: Rich in essential vitamins like A, D, B12, and choline

❓ Q&A:

Q: Can I use bone broth protein powder instead of gelatin?
A: Yes! It works similarly but may be less fluffy—great for added nutrition though.

Q: What toppings are allowed on carnivore?
A: Try butter, whipped cream cheese, unsweetened mascarpone, or melted cheese. For keto-carnivore, a small drizzle of sugar-free syrup may be okay.

Q: Can I prep the batter in advance?
A: Yes! Store in the fridge up to 24 hours. Let it sit at room temp for 10 mins before cooking for best texture.

Q: Can I make these dairy-free?
A: Use duck fat or tallow for cooking and replace cream cheese with a mix of egg yolks and beef tallow.

Q: Are these freezer-friendly?
A: Absolutely. Freeze in layers with parchment paper. Reheat in a skillet or toaster oven.
