Keto Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole
Keto bacon cheeseburger casserole delivers all the bold, juicy flavor of a classic bacon cheeseburger — without the bun. It’s cheesy, hearty, and incredibly satisfying, making it perfect for weeknight dinners or keto meal prep.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds ground beef (80/20 works best)
1/2 cup diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon mustard powder (or 1 tablespoon yellow mustard)
1 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup dill pickles, chopped (optional)
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 large eggs
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a casserole dish.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with the diced onion until browned. Drain excess grease.
Stir in the garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, and mustard powder. Remove from heat.
Spread the beef mixture evenly into the prepared casserole dish.
Sprinkle the crumbled bacon evenly over the beef.
In a bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and eggs until smooth. Pour the mixture evenly over the casserole.
Top with the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Add pickles if using.
Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden.
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Helpful Tips:
Use freshly cooked bacon for best texture.
Add jalapeños for a spicy kick.
For a “burger sauce” vibe, drizzle with sugar-free ketchup and mayo after baking.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve with a simple keto salad or roasted low-carb vegetables.
Top with avocado or sour cream.
Great for meal prep and reheats well.
Keto bacon cheeseburger casserole is rich, cheesy, and deeply comforting — all the flavor of a classic burger, perfectly transformed into a low-carb casserole.
