Breakfast is served! This Skinny Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole is quick and easy to make with no usual overnight sitting required. Plus, it’s low carb and keto friendly. Did I mention that it’s loaded with plenty of bacon and cheese too? Yep! This casserole is definitely a new breakfast favorite. From what I made this morning, I’ll have plenty leftover for a few more breakfast for myself this week!

I even managed to sneak in some veggies by way of peppers and onions. It’s good stuff I tell you. For this particular breakfast casserole, I went with a standard maple bacon, but really any bacon would work. I also went with a mix of low fat cheddar and a Carolina reaper cheddar to give some pep to this breakfast.

Any cheese should work here though. A gouda or even parmesan would also be good choices! One of my favorite parts about this casserole is that it sort of ends up coming out like one big egg bite. It’s soft and fluffy with a decadent texture that everyone is sure to love.

Another bonus about this casserole is that it reheats really well, making it great for meal prepping for the week!
