- Eggs
- Heavy cream
- Butter
- Cremini mushrooms
- Avocado
- Salt and pepper

How To Make the Keto Breakfast Plate with Creamy Scrambled Eggs, Mushrooms & Avocado
Step 1: Prep the Ingredients
Wash and slice the mushrooms. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice each half. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a splash of heavy cream, and whisk until fully combined.
Step 2: Sauté the Mushrooms
Heat a tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they’re browned and tender, about 6-8 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and set aside.
Step 3: Cook the Scrambled Eggs
In a nonstick pan over low heat, melt another tablespoon of butter. Pour in the egg mixture. Using a spatula, stir slowly and gently. This keeps the eggs creamy and soft. Cook until they just begin to set, then remove from heat—they’ll continue to cook slightly on the plate.
Step 4: Plate and Assemble
Place the creamy scrambled eggs on the plate. Add the sautéed mushrooms beside them. Fan out the avocado slices and add a dash of salt and pepper. If using, sprinkle fresh parsley over the top. Add a sunny-side egg on the side for extra flair.
Serving and Storing Your Keto Breakfast Plate
This keto breakfast plate is best served fresh while the eggs are creamy and the mushrooms warm. It makes a perfect sit-down breakfast or brunch. Pair it with a cup of black coffee or herbal tea to keep things keto-friendly.
If you need to store leftovers, place components separately in airtight containers. The scrambled eggs and mushrooms can be refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheated gently on the stove. The avocado should be sliced fresh when ready to serve again, as it browns quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I keep my scrambled eggs from turning rubbery?
Cook them slowly over low heat and remove them just before they’re fully set. They’ll finish cooking with residual heat.
Can I use olive oil instead of butter?
Yes, olive oil is a great substitute if you want a dairy-free fat or a different flavor profile.
Is this meal suitable for meal prepping?
It can be, with some tweaks. Store eggs and mushrooms separately and slice fresh avocado before serving. Keep components in individual containers for best texture.
What other vegetables can I add?
Spinach, kale, or bell peppers sautéed with the mushrooms work beautifully and keep things keto.
Do I have to add the sunny-side egg on top?
Not at all—it’s optional! You can skip it or replace it with another egg preparation of your choice.
Can I make this with egg whites only?
Yes, though the texture and richness will differ. Add a bit more cream or butter to compensate.
