Low-Carb Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 pound cooked bacon, chopped
  • 8 eggs
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 12 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to fully preheat while you prep the casserole.
  2. Cook the Beef Mixture: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef, garlic, and onion powder. Cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring often, until beef is browned and no pink remains. Drain excess grease and set aside.
  3. Layer the Base: Spread the cooked beef evenly across the bottom of a 9×13-inch casserole dish. Sprinkle the chopped bacon evenly over the beef.
  4. Make the Egg Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy. Stir in 8 ounces of the shredded Cheddar.
  5. Assemble the Casserole: Pour the egg and cheese mixture evenly over the beef and bacon. Gently shake the dish to help the liquid settle into all the crevices. Top with the remaining 4 ounces of Cheddar cheese.
  6. Bake: Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set (no jiggle in the middle).
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the casserole to cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing. This helps the layers hold together beautifully when serving.
