Keto Green Bean Casserole

Ingredients

Fresh green beans

1 pound, trimmed

Bacon

6 slices, diced

Onion

1 medium, diced

Garlic

3 cloves, minced

Cream cheese

8 ounces, softened

Heavy cream

1 cup

Parmesan cheese

1 cup, grated

Almond flour

1/2 cup

Salt

to taste

Pepper

to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the trimmed green beans and cook for 5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.
3. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the diced bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon and place it on a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.
4. In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is softened and translucent.
5. Reduce the heat to low and add the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, and grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet. Stir until the mixture is well combined and creamy.
6. Add the cooked green beans and crispy bacon to the creamy mixture. Toss to coat the green beans evenly and season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Transfer the green bean mixture to a greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle almond flour evenly over the top for a crunchy topping.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is heated through and the almond flour topping is golden brown.
9. Serve hot and enjoy this delightful keto-friendly dish!
