Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

That idea has been drilled into our heads for ages, but is it the most important meal of the day?

Are all meals created equal?

Well, if you're on the ketogenic diet, they should be.

Created equally in the sense that you spend time planning and considering what you're going to eat, that is. Breakfast means a break in fasting.

While you sleep, you fast from eating for (hopefully) eight or more hours, so breakfast is the meal that breaks that fast.

Does that make it more important?

That depends on what you're eating for breakfast!

Breakfast is a way to kick start your day and jump-start fat burning.

If you eat meals that are higher in fat first thing in the morning, you are giving your body exactly what it needs to run a healthy brain, and this can lead to making better choices all day.

If you're not getting enough fat, you may find your brain feeling "foggy," and you will most likely end up grumpy.

Everything we eat affects our bodies, so it is paramount that we are always focusing on meeting our fat goals.

It's easy to overlook fat and focus on carbs, but those two numbers can't work apart.

You can be in ketosis for months and never lose weight because, without the proper fat intake, your body won't let go of a pound.

It will store as much fat as it can because it feels like you're starving it of the nutrients it needs, which you are.

Let this be a reminder if you've made your daily carb count your focus.

Fat and protein are just as important as carbs, if not more important. Your body will function optimally when you've fueled it with fat.

5. Dish into muffin cups (always try to use silicone baking cups and bake for 25-30 minutes
6. This recipe makes 15 muffins.

Always try to choose thick-cut bacon. It can be more expensive, but it's worth it for the extra flavor and fat it brings to your dish.

Always measure servings carefully so they are all the same.

How amazingly moist do these look?

These breakfast cups are delicious.

When baking, cut one in half to see if it's done.

The breakfast cups will seem a little wetter than muffins because they are egg-based; make sure they aren't undercooked.

If you need to leave them for 5-10 minutes, that's fine.

Watch to make sure the tops don't burn.

Bonus Tip: You can substitute Psyllium Husk Powder with Xantham Gum OR Flax Seed Meal in most keto baked goods recipes. {1:1 ratio}
