Cooking methods
Preparation steps
- Before starting, gather all the ingredients for the keto breakfast sandwich recipe.
- In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, cream cheese, maple extract, and powdered swerve using a hand mixer until the mixture becomes fluffy.
- Add the almond flour, baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Mix everything together until you achieve a smooth batter.
Cooking instructions
- Add a tablespoon of the butter to the skillet and place over medium heat. Once melted scoop ¼ cup of the batter and add to the skillet, repeat.
- Cook the two pancakes for 1-2 minutes per side until the edges are set, and they are easily flipped. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until done. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Set the pancakes aside somewhere warm while you cook the sausage, bacon, and eggs.
- Heat the ½ tablespoon of butter in the skillet and pour in half of the whisked eggs. Allow to set, then fold in the sides.
- Place on one of the cakes, then repeat with the remaining eggs.
- Assemble by topping the eggs with the sausage, bacon, and cheddar cheese. Top with another pancake and serve.
Chef's pro tip
Here's a little secret to making the best pancakes ever! When cooking these fluffy delights, avoid overcrowding the skillet. Give each pancake plenty of room to cook evenly and turn that perfect golden brown. The trick is to cook them in batches. This way, they can spread out and cook just the way they're meant to - fluffy, delicious, and totally drool-worthy!

This is a great recipe!
I made the sandwich per the recipe but instead of the above fillings I put guacamole and a fried egg on a sandwich, no 2nd sandwich on top - I can't eat that much, haha! It made a perfect holiday breakfast!
