Fast-food breakfasts just won't cut it on a low-carb diet, but these quick, homemade meals absolutely will. When it comes to breakfast, it's not just how efficiently you can whip up a recipe that matters but also how much trouble it can save you on hectic mornings. So, while these breakfasts require very little active cooking time, many of them can also be made in batches over the weekend, then simply reheated (or not!) throughout the week. You'll find everything from chocolate muffins to breakfast fajitas on this list, each packed with flavor and nutrients that will help keep you going until lunch. Let's dig in, shall we?

This veggie-filled breakfast is much healthier than any egg muffin you'll find in a drive-through, and they'll stay good in the refrigerator for up to a week.
You can eat oatmeal on a low-carb diet — oats are a whole grain, after all — but if you want to save your carbs for later in the day, try this grain-free version, made with almond flour, coconut flakes, flax meal, and chia seeds.
This tasty bagel recipe takes about 20 minutes from start to finish, and if you make a batch over the weekend, you can simply grab one on your way out the door in the morning.
It may sound fancy, but it couldn't be simpler to make. Once the onions are caramelized on the stove, just add the ingredients to a sheet pan, and let the oven do the work.
Sundays are synonymous with pancakes, and the secret ingredients in this recipe (almond flour, coconut flour, cream cheese) make this breakfast tradition decidedly low-carb.
It'll take you a little more than 30 minutes to bake the eggs and peppers, but if you add this tasty dish to your weekend meal prep, you'll only need to reheat it and top it with avocado on a weekday morning.
